US releases one of longest-held Guantánamo Bay detainees to Tunisia
Ridah Bin Saleh al-Yazidi was held without charge for more than 20 years as prison facilitates burst of transfers
A Tunisian national who had become one of Guantánamo Bay’s longest-held detainees has been released from the Cuban compound, the Pentagon announced on Monday night.
Ridah Bin Saleh al-Yazidi was transferred to his home country after being held without charge since the detention facility opened in January 2002. The 59-year-old appeared in one of the detention centre’s most iconic photographs, showing detainees kneeling in the open-air compound of Camp X-Ray.
