British Resident Freed From Torture Camp

The Bush-Cheney government says Omar Deghayes is a terrorist. The man's family and the British government say it's a case of mistaken identity.

Deghayes was a Libyan refugee living in England with his family until his arrest in Pakistan five years ago. U.S. operatives kidnapped him and took him to the notorious prison camp at Guantanamo Bay.

Mr. Deghayes is a lawyer. His brother thanked the British government for gaining the man's release, noting that it will end five years of "torture and misery."
