KUWAIT CITY, July 30: Kuwait has slammed the United States for holding 12 Kuwaitis in Camp X-ray in Guantanamo and said their continuous detention without trail is against all values of human rights. Kuwait National Assembly Speaker Jassim Al Khorafi in a press statement on Wednesday said that United States should take a clear position regarding the prisoners in Guantanomo, adding the prisoner should either go to trial or be released if they were innocent.

He said parliament was studying the possibility of inviting other parliaments in countries, which have prisoners in Guantanamo for a meeting to exchange views on the issue.

He said the meeting was aimed at adopting a group view in the way these states demand the legal, international and human rights of the prisoners in Guantanamo. “We are against terrorism and any kind of aggression against others, but this does not mean we should accept the US continuous detention of those prisoner without taking them to trial,” he added.
