The U.S. military said it would release five Iraqi women detainees, but denied that the move was connected to the demands of Jill Carroll’s kidnappers, The Associated Press reported.
The female prisoners will be freed Thursday and Friday as part of a release of 419 Iraqi detainees after officials concluded there was insufficient evidence to charge them, said Lt. Col. Guy Rudisill, spokesman for the U.S. detention command.
Iraq’s Deputy Justice Minister Busho Ibrahim Ali also confirmed that five women detainees will be freed from the Camp Cropper detention center in a U.S. base near Baghdad International Airport.
