Maybe a "detention" review for Abu Zubaydah

 

You can read more about this unfortunate man in this blog. He was tortured over a period of months. Water boarded countless times. Eventually the government acknowledged that he was a nobody in the "war on terror". Yet he is still held 25 years now. No charges have ever been lodged against him and never will. I doubt that the military will do the right thing. Especially during this awful time in my government.

That said:

After 20 years at Guantanamo without charges, alleged Bin Laden associate AbuZubaydah faces a rare detention review, exposing the secrecy surrounding post-9/11military justice.

Once portrayed as a senior Al Qaeda figure, Zubaydah was tortured at CIA black sites,left permanently injured and still never charged, raising questions about U.S.accountability.

His lawyers argue he no longer poses a threat and should be transferred under strictmonitoring, as a review board weighs whether indefinite detention can still be justified.
