Washington, December 2 (RHC)-- U.S. officials have admitted that a man who has been imprisoned for 13 years at Guantánamo Bay was captured in a case of mistaken identity.

Pentagon officials conceded they wrongly believed 37-year-old Mustafa al-Aziz al-Shamiri had played a more significant role in Al-Qaeda because they confused him with others who had similar names.

Despite this acknowledgement, he is still imprisoned and it is not clear if and when he may be freed.
