Baghdad, Riyadh to repatriate prisoners
By: Raza Ali
NEW YORK: Iraq has agreed to repatriate Saudi prisoners who fought
alongside insurgents against U.S.-led invasion.
The prisoner exchange deal comes less than a month after Saudi Arabia
named an ambassador to Baghdad for the first time since Saddam invaded
Kuwait in 1990.It also comes ahead of an Arab summit in Baghdad on
March 29 which has been delayed twice by regional turmoil and acrimony
between Baghdad and some Gulf Arab states over a crackdown by
Bahrain’s rulers on Shi’ite protesters.”
According to rights activists hundreds of Saudis held in Iraq, mostly
for involvement in an insurgency against U.S.-led troops, as well as
Iraqis held in Saudi Arabia for criminal offences, are expected to be
affected.
