Ahmed Rabbani | Dear President Trump, Close Guantanamo Bay and Give Us a Fair Trial
Ahmed Rabbani, Newsweek
Rabbani writes: "I'm a taxi driver from Karachi, in Pakistan. Fifteen years ago I was sold for a bounty and taken by the U.S. military to a secret prison in Afghanistan. They mistook me for someone called Hassan Gul, and I was tortured for over a year before they flew me to Guantanamo. There's no disputing this - it's in the U.S. Senate report on torture. I've been held here ever since then, without charge or trial."
