One of the detainees approved for release was also found not to be an "enemy combatant" by a tribunal set up to review the status of detainees in the war on terror, a Department of Defense news release said.

Previously, 129 detainees were transferred for release and 27 others were transferred to the control of other governments, including France, Great Britain, Morocco, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain and Sweden

Another high-profile government detainee is expected to be released soon. Yaser Esam Hamdi, a government-declared "enemy combatant" being held in a South Carolina military brig, is expected to be released to Saudi Arabia, Bush administration officials said Wednesday.

The deal would allow Hamdi to fly home to Saudi Arabia as a free man, sources said.

The 24-year-old Hamdi was originally held in Guantanamo Bay. When it was discovered he was born in Louisiana, he was transferred to the United States.

Hamdi has been in U.S. military custody since his arrest on the battlefield in Afghanistan in November 2001 and has been held in solitary confinement since coming to the United States.

An "enemy combatant" can be detained without charges or legal representation. They are just there.
