Azerbaijani detainee Polad Sirajov, who is detained in Guantanamo Bay detention facility, wants to live in Europe, APA reports quoting international news agencies.
Clive Adrian Stafford Smith, Legal Director of the UK branch of the human rights not-for-profit Reprieve publicized that 40 prisoners wanted to live in Europe.
“There are Azerbaijani, Russian, Uzbek, Afghan, and Tajik citizens among them,” he added.
To him, Denmark, Netherlands and Austria refused to receive prisoners, but Spain, Italy, France and Portugal are ready to accept them.
President Obama issued an executive order to close Guantanamo Bay detention facility. The US Government should pass a decision on the fate of prisoners. The US publicized that it was ready to take wishes of European leaders into account.
Polad Sirajov graduated from the faculty of economy of Erciyez University in Turkey and worked in a Turkish company for a time. He left home early in 2001 and never came back.
In January, 2002, his family was told that he was arrested along with Taliban members and taken to Guantanamo prison.
The ICRC representatives met Sirajov several times in the detention facility.
