    Default Iran frees five AQ Members for kidnapped diplomat: Part 2

    The NYT adds:
    The Iranian government, in a statement on Thursday after the release was reported by Sky News earlier this week, denied that the five men had been freed....The release of the men could re-energize the militant group, providing an influx of vetted leaders at a crucial time, terrorism experts say.

    So six months ago this release happened or didn't, then a week ago the Khobar Towers suspect appears to have been "given up".
