A Saudi man held at Guantánamo for more than two decades without being put on trial has been released by the U.S., making him the fourth inmate transferred out of the military prison in about a month.
— indicates that the Biden administration is accelerating its efforts to close Guantánamo, or at least reduce its inmate population to only those facing criminal charges.
Al-Sharbi had been cleared for release for more than a year, but the U.S. continued to hold him for another 13 months without explanation. In March 2002 he was captured during a raid of an al-Qaeda guest house in Pakistan and in June 2002 he was sent to Guantánamo, where the military court tried unsuccessfully to prosecute him.
In 2016, a parole-like board described al-Sharbi as"mostly non-compliant and hostile with the guards." It also said he"espouses a strong dislike for the U.S." and"has told interrogators that he will re-engage in terrorist activity" if released. Based on that assessment, the U.S. continued to hold him.
