Guantanamo man flying back to UK

London, 23 Feb-(ANA)-A British resident detained at Guantanamo Bay for more than four years is on his way back to the UK.

Ethiopian-born Binyam Mohamed, 30, says he was tortured while in custody on suspicion of terrorism.

He said in a statement the worst moment of his captivity was when he realised his alleged torturers were receiving material from UK intelligence agents.

Foreign Secretary David Miliband said his release was the first step towards the goal of closing Guantanamo Bay.

Mr Mohamed is expected to land at RAF Northolt in London today. He is being accompanied by officers from the Metropolitan Police and a doctor.(ANA)
