Yemen

The US will extradite Salim Hamdan from Guantanamo Bay to Yemen, according to an unconfirmed report. Hamdan was Osama bin Laden’s personal driver and bodyguard, and was convicted by a US military tribunal for supporting al Qaeda and sentenced to five and a half years in prison. His time has already been served, so the US must release him.
