They've "repented"- now that's special:

92 Al Qaeda Suspects Freed in Amnesty





From Times Wire Reports

Yemen's government freed more than 1,500 inmates as part of an amnesty during the Ramadan holy month, including 92 followers of the Al Qaeda terrorist network who are considered to have repented, officials said.

The Arab state, trying to shed an image as a militant hotbed, has launched a drive with the help of Muslim clerics to "reeducate" militants, mainly prisoners held for planning attacks on Western and Yemeni targets.







The state news agency said the clerics told Yemen's president that the 92 were repentant and had vowed to shun violence and extremism and respect non-Muslims.
