      State Department cable concerning a gentleman who approached the embassy to inquire about his son’s status in U.S. custody at Guantanamo. The father stated that he formed a group of detainee families to act collectively to seek information, access and the safe return of their family members. The father found out about his son's detention through their government and did not inquire of the U.S. Embassy as to the accuracy of the report of his son's detention at Guantanamo. The father claims his son was a humanitarian aid worker and was mistaken for a Taliban fighter.
