Judge Orders Release of Gitmo Prisoner
--------------------------------------



A Yemeni national has been ordered released from the US military prison
at Guantanamo Bay. On Tuesday, a federal judge said the government has
failed to prove twenty-five-year-old Alla Ali Bin Ali Ahmed had ties to
al-Qaeda or the Taliban. Ahmed has been jailed at Guantanamo since 2002.
