VOICED : Repatrian 4 afganos de Guantanamo

The US has repatriated four Afghan prisoners from Guantanamo Bay after over a decade of detention. Captured between 2002 and 2003, they were suspected of Taliban and al-Qaeda links, but their lawyers argued insufficient evidence. Earlier, six Syrian prisoners were sent to Uruguay as refugees. Of the remaining 132 detainees, 63 are deemed releasable by the Obama administration, which faces challenges in closing Guantanamo due to congressional opposition and difficulties in finding host countries.
