Guantanamo prisoner asks to go home to Yemen

ARLINGTON, Virginia (AP) — A Guantanamo Bay prisoner who denies U.S. allegations that he’s a former member of al-Qaida says he wants to go home to Yemen and live a peaceful life after 12 years at the military prison in Cuba.

Speaking through a military representative, Ali Ahmad al-Razihi told a prisoner review board Thursday he wants to return to his home town, get married and build his father’s fruit and vegetable business.
