U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer, who first denied Bel Bacha's request last month, said the court lacks jurisdiction to hear cases from Guantanamo detainees that do not involve challenges to their confinement.

Ahmed Bel Bacha, who has been held at Guantanamo for five years, has argued he would be tortured if turned over to Algerian officials Why would he make this argument if he was being tortured in Gitmo? What difference would it make?
You mean he isn't being tortured in Gitmo and the usual liberal suspects have been lying to us?

Am I missing something here?
It seems I have been told that Gitmo is the worst ‘hell on earth’ that there is. Inmates are suing to stay there? Next thing you know the msm will start telling me the surge is working.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Release No: NR-122-14
March 13, 2014
Detainee Transfer Announced
The Department of Defense announced today the transfer of Ahmed Belbacha from the detention facility at Guantánamo Bay to the Government of Algeria.
As directed by the President’s Jan. 22, 2009, Executive Order, the interagency Guantánamo Review Task Force conducted a comprehensive review of this case. As a result of that review, which examined a number of factors, including security issues, Belbacha was designated for transfer by unanimous consent among the six departments and agencies comprising the task force.
In accordance with congressionally-mandated reporting requirements, the administration informed Congress of its intent to transfer this individual.
The United States is grateful to the Government of Algeria for its willingness to support ongoing U.S. efforts to close the Guantánamo Bay detention facility. The United States coordinated with the Government of Algeria to ensure this transfer took place with appropriate security and humane treatment assurances.
Today, 154 detainees remain at Guantánamo Bay.
