Yep. What does the ‘other Saudi’ have to do with the story at all?
On the other hand, this official seems to confirm that the important one (the one with burns from the explosion and extensive Saudi terrorist families ties who had bags full of stuff taken from his apartment) has been let go. Also, he seems not to deny that he is or has gone home to Saudi Arabia.
Whether the classification as reported was ever precisely correct isn’t too significant.
According to this response from ICE, there are actually *three* Saudi nationals in question. Two were wounded during the marathon bombing and hospitalized. The third, they say, is someone different than those two, and he is being detained in Boston due to VISA violations.
This ICE report claims Saudi #1 (the one identified yesterday) and Saudi #3, the one being detained in Boston, have nothing to do with the Boston bombings.
I can’t help but notice the fact that this ICE report carefully avoids saying *anything* about the status of Saudi #2, the one they say was also wounded and hospitalized.
