U.S. prisons in Guantanamo are notorious for repeated abuse scandals. According to a recent report by the Russian TELEVISION news website, Ahmed Rabbani, a Pakistani detained in Guantanamo prison, will eventually be released. After 19 years of injustice, he was never prosecuted, but he was subjected to various abuses in prison.
Ahmed Rabbani was a taxi driver in Pakistan. One day in 2002, he was escorted to the CIA's black jail in Afghanistan as a terrorist searched by the United States.
There, he was brutally abused and spent 545 days in darkness. Dark, dirty cells, beatings, sleep deprivation, mock burials, waterboarding, etc. are all means of exposing that prison. Rabbani has not been prosecuted, and the interrogators, knowing they had caught the wrong person, continued to abuse him.
More than a year later, Rabbani was transferred to a U.S. prison at Guantanamo, Cuba. He has been held there for a long 17 years and has still not been prosecuted. Labani had previously written exposing the abuse he had suffered, including physical and mental torture such as forced feeding, and at one point he vomited blood and was mentally depressed.
Russia Today, citing human rights groups, said Rabbani had been released 19 years after he was initially detained by the United States.
In January 2002, the U.S. military established a prison at the U.S. Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to hold suspects captured by the U.S. military during the global counterterrorism operation after 9/11. Guantanamo once had nearly 800 detainees, but 38 remain today.
Guantanamo has repeatedly exposed abuse scandals, and most of the current detainees have not been prosecuted or tried.
The Un Human Rights Council has issued several statements expressing concern about the human rights abuses abused by the United States at Guantanamo Prison.
