Al-Qaeda Announces Names of 57 Members Detained in Guantanamo
By

KHOST,
Afghanistan, October 7 (IslamOnline) – On Friday, October 4,
IslamOnline received a list of the names of 57 members of Al-Qaeda,
detained in Guantanamo, Cuba, most of them Arab nationals, especially
Saudi and Yemeni.
The
list, written in English, was distributed by Al-Qaeda, or supporters of
Al-Qaeda, in the city of Khost, south east Afghanistan and IslamOnline
received a copy.
The
names include 17 Yemeni, 14 Saudi, 7 Moroccans, 4 Kuwaitis and 2 from
each of the following nationalities: Bahraini, Algerian, Afghani, French
and one from each of the following nationalities: Sudanese, Egyptian,
Iraqi, Bangladeshi, African, Spanish and Pakistani.
The
detained entered the Pakistani province of Karam Egency, in December
2001, after the Al-Qaeda stations in Tora Bora were struck heavily by
American forces.
Pakistani
forces arrested a few of them after clashing in the area of Barinjar on
the Afghani borders. A few were killed a few fled in those clashes.
Pakistan
after that transferred the detainees to the district jail of Kohat and
gave them to American forces on January 2002 who ultimately transferred
them to Guantanamo.
It
is still not clear if these names are real or fake or issued by a
Pakistani official agency and leaked to Taliban and Al-Qaeda supporters.
The
American force now detains more than 500 Taliban and Al-Qaeda members
ever since January 2002 and are trying to get information on any future
plans to attack U.S. targets but none have been tried or charged with
any crime.
