Washington, February 24 (RHC)-- The Biden administration has released two more prisoners from the Guantánamo Bay Naval Base, located on illegally-occupied territory in Cuba.  

Mohammed and Abdul Rabbani, two brothers now in their mid-fifties, were repatriated to Pakistan after they were held without charges for two decades.  The U.S. accused them of providing low-level logistical support to al-Qaeda, but never provided evidence in a court of law. 

Both brothers say they were tortured at a secret CIA prison in Afghanistan for about 550 days before they were transferred to Guantánamo in 2004.  The U.S. continues to imprison 32 men at Guantánamo.
