Djamel Ameziane - Detention in Guantanamo Risk of human rights violations in Algeria

10 Feb 2009

Ameziane was held in solitary confinement for over a year in a small windowless cell in Camp 6, one of the harshest facilities in Guantanamo. [...] To escape the bombing, he fled to Pakistan, where he was picked up and sold to the United States for a bounty. [...] Risk of Persecution If Anwar is returned to China, he faces persecution and torture at the hands of a government on the basis of ethnicity (Uighur) and religious beliefs (Islam). [...] He was living in Kabul at the time of the US bombardment in 2001. [...] He had traveled to Kabul to look for work and in order to find a wife, because he could not afford the price of a dowry in Syria.
