Georgia Takes 3 Gitmo Detainees

26 March 2010


TBILISI, Georgia — Georgia has accepted three detainees from Guantanamo Bay but said they won't be allowed to leave the country.

The three former detainees, who come from Middle East countries, will be allowed to contact their families and enjoy other freedoms but cannot travel abroad, Georgian Interior Ministry spokesman Shota Utiashvili said.


The U.S. Justice Department said the identities of the three detainees sent to Georgia this week were being withheld for security and privacy reasons.

At least 38 countries have accepted Guantanamo detainees.
