Fawzi al-Odah was released from Guantanamo Bay Facility where he has been held for the past 12 years. Fawzi is said to have ties to the terrorist group Al- Qaeda.
The Pentagon released a statement on Tuesday that said Fawzi al-Odah will be released to the Kuwaiti government. Although its unclear how the prisoner will be received by the Kuwaiti government and if hell be released. Fawzi said he had moved to Afghanistan in 2001 to teach the Quran and Muslim in schools. The US government would like to think differently and claim he went to Afganistan to join al-Qaeda and fight against the Northern Alliance. Reports indicate when Federal prosecuters had interviwed Fawzi al-Odah he could not recall any of the schools, teachers or students he came in contact with during his teaching. Oddly Fawzis Father had fought for the Us during the Gulf War and claims his sons innocence.
