A Guantanamo Bay inmate has been transferred from the US military prison back to his home country of Kuwait, the Pentagon announced Friday, bringing the prison's remaining population down to 104.
"The Department of Defense announced today the repatriation of Faez Mohammed Ahmed Al-Kandari from the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay to the government of the state of Kuwait," the Pentagon said in a statement.
President Barack Obama pledged to shut Guantanamo when he took office in 2009, but his efforts have been repeatedly thwarted by Congress
