This news piece discusses two separate events: the call for parental guidelines on Santa's electronics this Christmas and the release of a Kenyan detainee from Guantanamo Bay after 17 years of detention.
Santa’s electronics are calling for parental guidelines this Christmas. Meanwhile, the U.S. has repatriated a Kenyan man held for 17 years without charge at the U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay , Cuba, leaving 15 other never-charged men still waiting for release after being cleared of wrongdoing. The Guantanamo Bay detention camp was established by the U.S. administration after the 9/11 attacks to handle hundreds of mostly Muslim detainees.
Only 29 detainees remain at Guantanamo after the Kenyan man's release. Fifteen have been cleared of wrongdoing and are waiting for acceptance by a suitable foreign country, three others are eligible for review, four convicted men are serving sentences and seven are undergoing military prosecution. The last include four men accused in al-Qaida's 9/11 attacks. A human rights group is urging the U.S. administration to end the detention of the 15 never-charged men. If not, the rights group said in a statement, “he will continue to bear responsibility for the abhorrent practice of indefinite detention without charge or trial by the U.S. government.
