FBI Memo re: Interview of Detainee at Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay

Mar. 27, 2003 | FBI | ACLU-RDI 3437
Interview of a detainee at Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay. The detainee was visably sick when interviewed, and remained so through out. Detainee stated that he had no connection to terrorism and knew nothing about the September 11, 2001 attacks other than what was later reported. He was then shown photos of men he identified as known to him, but denied knowing them as terrorists or any knowledge of their activities. He stated that the terrorist attackers should be punished for killing the innocent and insisted that he had not supported any criminal act in any way. He claimed that when he was first captured, he was tortured by those asking him questions. He had to stand up for five days straight and answer questions. He was also forced to strip naked and stand in front of a female interrogator. He maintained that that he did not know why he was imprisoned, that he had not committed any crimes and that he had just been trying to get home, and he missed his family.
