PRINCE NAIF BIN ABDULAZIZ, THE MINISTER OF INTERIOR, SAID THAT THE CUSTODIAN OF THE TWO HOLY MOSQUES KING ABDULLAH BIN ABDULAZIZ HAS PROPOSED THE SET UP OF A COUNTER-TERRORISM INTERNATIONAL CENTER TO GULF COOPERATION COUNCIL (GCC) SUMMIT AND THE GCC LEADERS ENDORSED BAHRAIN AS ITS HEADQUARTERS. IN A DEPARTURE PRESS STATEMENT HERE TODAY, HE POINTED OUT THAT THE CENTER WILL BE A REFERENCE TO INFORMATION ON TERRORISM, NOTING THAT EVERY COUNTRY HAS A RIGHT TO PRESERVE INFORMATION AND IT IS UP TO THE COUNTRY TO PROVIDE THE CENTER WITH ANY INFORMATION. REPLYING TO A QUESTION ON THE KING'S TOUR OF A NUMBER OF THE KINGDOM'S REGIONS, HE SAID THAT VISITS OF SAUDI LEADERS TO THEIR PEOPLE ARE OBVIOUS, NOTING THAT THE NATION AND CITIZENS WILL BE VERY PLEASED WITH HIS VISITS. ON SAUDI DETAINEES RECENTLY SET FREE FROM GUANTANAMO BAY, PRINCE NAIF SAID THAT THEY WILL BE INTERROGATED TO KNOW WHETHER THEY ARE GUILTY OR NOT OF A TERRORIST ACT AND LATER THEY WILL BE REFERRED TO THE JUDICIARY AUTHORITY FOR RULING. AS FOR A QATARI DETAINEE STRIPPED OF HIS NATIONALITY AND RECEIVED BY THE KINGDOM, PRINCE NAIF STATED THAT WE LOOK AT THE TOPIC FROM A HUMANITARIAN VIEWPOINT AND COOPERATION WITH ALL.
