British authorities have assured us that they will take the necessary steps to address the threat posed by these individuals, ... I believe the UK did not have the information they needed to charge these individuals.

Prior to returning this detainee to Egypt, the United States received appropriate assurances from the government of Egypt regarding this detainee's treatment upon his return to Egypt. This includes assurances that this individual will continue to be treated humanely, in accordance with Egyptian and international legal obligations, while he remains in Egypt.

We continue to believe that these individuals pose a significant threat.
