ANDREWS AIR FORCE BASE, Maryland (AP) -- Three of five British residents held at the military prison in Guantanamo Bay will soon be released under a repatriation agreement with the British government, an attorney for one of the detainees said Friday.
Jordanian Jamil el-Banna, Libyan-born Omar Deghayes and Algerian Abdennour Sameur will be returned to Britain.
"These men have received nothing in the way of justice, nothing at all," said Zachary Katznelson, an attorney with British human rights group "Reprieve," which represents British residents at Guantanamo. "It's about time they were returned to their families, and we're grateful to the British government for making this happen."
