An estimated 60 Afghans held at Guantanamo Bay have been brought back to their country and will be freed on Sunday, the Afghan Supreme Court said.
A court spokesman said the group has been brought to Bagram Air Base, the main U.S. installation in Afghanistan. From there they will be moved to Kabul, then allowed to return to their homes, spokesman Wahid Mozhda said.
Mozhda said the prisoners were all Afghan, but had no further details.
American military officials in Kabul said they had no information about any release and referred questions to the U.S. Department of Defense.
