A Saudi man accused of being the would-be 20th hijacker in the 9/11 attacks was released from Guantanamo Bay and sent back to his home country for psychiatric treatment, the Department of Defense said Monday.
Mohammad Ahmad al-Qahtani, 46, was flown to Saudi Arabia after the Biden administration dropped a legal fight initiated under former President Donald Trump contesting the prisoner’s repatriation.
A review board including military and intelligence officials concluded that al-Qahtani could be safely released from the US base in Cuba after spending 20 years in custody there.
