US hands control of jail back to Afghhanistan
Formal control of Afghanistan's only large-scale US-run prison has been handed over to Kabul, even as disagreements between the two countries over the thousands of Taliban and terror suspects held there marred the transfer.
The handover ceremony took place at the prison next to a sprawling US airfield in Bagram. President Hamid Karzai has called the transfer a victory for Afghan sovereignty.
