Snicker The three men were included among more than 50 Pakistanis who were captured in Afghanistan during the U.S.-led war after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. U.S. authorities later transferred the men to Guantanamo Bay to investigate their links with al-Qaida. In the past two years, U.S. authorities have released about two dozen Pakistanis, the last three on Monday. Reached their expiration date. Interior Ministry spokesman Abdul Rauf Chaudhry said the three Pakistanis are facing questioning. "We will not release them immediately," he told The Associated Press. "These people will remain in our custody for some time for security reasons." Farewell to sunny Gitmo, say hello to a cold Pakistani jail cell. |
