A former UW-Richland student who had been imprisoned in Bahrain since Sept. 8 has apparently been set free. The Cap Times reported on the plight of Ali Almajed earlier this month. On Tuesday, former UW-Richland international student adviser Kathy Neckar, who has stayed in close contact with Almajed?s wife, sent an email stating she had just gotten word that Almajed is out of jail.
