One of the three men who committed suicide at the US prison camp at Guantanamo Bay was due to be released - but did not know it, says a US lawyer.
Mark Denbeaux, who represents some of the foreign detainees, told the BBC's World Today programme the man was among 141 prisoners scheduled for release.
The Pentagon said the prisoner, Mani Shaman Turki al-Habardi Al-Utaybi, had been recommended for transfer.
It has also named the other two men who died on Saturday morning.
They are Ali Abdullah Ahmed and Yassar Talal al-Zahrani.
Utaybi and Zahrani had previous been named by Saudi authorities.
