[Ynet] An Afghan who once faced war crimes charges at Guantanamo has now been cleared for release from the U.S. base in Cuba, the government announced Friday.
The Periodic Review Board, an organization made up of various government agencies that conducts parole-style hearings for prisoners held at Guantanamo, determined it was no longer necessary to detain the man known by the single name of Obaidullah. A statement announcing the decision was posted on a Pentagon website.
