Judge Orders Release of Five Guantanamo Prisoners
-------------------------------------------------



A federal judge has ordered the immediate release of five Algerians held
at Guantanamo. US District Judge Richard Leon said the government’s
evidence linking the men to al-Qaeda was not credible, because it came
from a single, unidentified source. The men have been held for seven
years.
