MANAMA, Bahrain (AP) - A former detainee in the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay returned home Sunday to Bahrain after being held for five years, officials said. Salah Abdulrahim al Blooshi was at his family's home Sunday night, said the head of Bahrain's public prosecutors office, Nawaf al-Ma'wdah, who declined to provide additional information about al Blooshi or his release.
And nothing at all about what he was doing in Afghanistan working for the Widows Ammunition Fund. | Earlier Saturday, al Blooshi's father, Abdulrahim al Blooshi, thanked the small Persian Gulf country's king, members of parliament and civil rights activists including Nabeel Rajab, the former head of the now dissolved Bahrain Center for Human Rights, for his son's release.
Two other Bahrain nationals remain in custody at Guantanamo Bay. |
