A Saudi government spokesman says 11 of the Saudis on its recently issued most wanted list are former Guantanamo detainees.
Gen. Mansour al-Turki of the Saudi Interior Ministry said that among the 85 people listed by the government, 11 had been released from the U.S. detention facility in Cuba and passed through government-sponsored rehabilitation programs.
A total of 117 Saudis have been freed from Guantanamo, al-Turki says, with the vast majority not getting into further trouble.
Monday, the Saudis issued a wanted list of Saudis and two Yemenis living abroad and suspected of involvement with al-Qaida.
