A RAFT of prisoners, including two suspected bodyguards for Osama Bin Laden, has been released from the notorious Guantanamo Bay lockup.
They were freed from the Cuban prison on Monday as part of a covert operation that saw them fly to Oman.
Moath Hamza Ahmed al-Alwi, an alleged Al Qaeda fighter, was among those released.
Defense department officials said he worked within Bin Laden’s security team, according to a file from 2016.
Officials believed he “probably trained” with Al Qaeda militants but were unsure if he was involved in combat.
They warned that Alwi still had an extremist mindset based on his statements.
Suhayl Abdul Anam al Sharabi, who is also suspected of being a bodyguard for Bin Laden, has also been released.
Officials claimed al Sharabi may have been involved in an aborted 9/11 hijacking plot in southwest Asia, according to his detainee profile from 2020.
Al Sharabi had been holed up at Gitmo since May 2002.
