Gitmo detainees sent to Iraq, Chad
WASHINGTON — U.S. officials say two more Guantanamo Bay detainees have been released, sent to their home countries of Iraq and Chad.
The Justice Department says Jawad Jabber Sadkhan was sent to Iraq Wednesday night.
Mohammed el-Gharani, the youngest detainee at Guantanamo, arrived in Chad Thursday.
The transfers come as four other detainees arrived Thursday in Bermuda, bringing the total number of detainees still at Guantanamo to 232.
Earlier this week, the first Guantanamo detainee arrived on U.S. soil, when officials sent Ahmed Ghailani to New York to face trial.
