Sábado, setembro 8o, 2007
? Saudi suspeitado de ser o “20o hijacker” no Sept. 11 ataques têm recanted seu confession, dig fêz indicações falsas depois que foi batido, abusado e humilhado em Guantanamo, de acordo com os originais obtidos sexta-feira pela pressão associada. Al-Qahtani de Mohammed? quem ESTADOS UNIDOS. os oficiais têm dito previamente foram sujeitados ao tratamento áspero autorizado pela secretária anterior Donald H. da defesa. Rumsfeld? conhecimento negado do Sept. 11 ataques em sua primeira aparência antes de um painel militar na baía de Guantanamo em outubro. “Eu sou um homem de negócios, um homem calmo,” al-Qahtani testified sob o juramento, quase cinco anos depois que foi feito exame ao centro do detention em Cuba. “Eu não tenho nenhuma conexão ao terrorismo, à violência ou aos lutadores.” O AP obteve um transcript do hearing do governo sob a liberdade do ato da informação. Esta é a primeira indicação extensiva pelo al-Qahtani liberado sempre. Um oficial militar não identificado no hearing disse viajar admitido detido em 2001 em Afeganistão, onde recebeu o treinamento do terrorista, encontrado com com o escaninho de Osama Laden e concordado participar do “em uma missão martyr” para o al-Qaida. O al-Qahtani disse que as indicações não eram verdadeiras e lhes admitiu somente quando “estava sendo torturado” em Guantanamo. A tortura alegada, que detalha em uma indicação separada, incluiu ser batido, contido por períodos longos em posições incômodas, ameaçado com os cães, exposto à música alta e temperaturas congelando-se e nude descascado na frente do pessoal fêmea, ele disse. “Uma vez que esta tortura parou, eu expliquei-o repetidamente que nenhuma de o que eu disse era verdadeira,” disse o painel administrativo da placa de revisão, reunido para determinar se poderia ser liberado. “Eu não tenho nenhuma intenção para matar povos inocentes ou qualquer outra coisa semelhante,” disse. O al-Qahtani é um dos prisioneiros os mais notorious em Guantanamo, onde os ESTADOS UNIDOS. agora preensões aproximadamente 340 homens na suspeita do terrorismo ou das ligações ao al-Qaida ou ao Taliban. Os ESTADOS UNIDOS. alegou esse al-Qahtani, que a mostra militar dos registros é aproximadamente 28, transformar-se mal faltado o 20o hijacker no Sept. 11, 2001. O Saudi foi negado a entrada no país por agentes do immigration no aeroporto em Orlando, Florida. At the time, he had more than $2,400 in cash, no return plane ticket and lead hijacker Mohamed Atta was waiting for him, said Navy Cmdr. Jeffrey Gordon, a Pentagon spokesman. “We think he is a dangerous terrorist,” he said. The U.S. treats detainees humanely and denounces the use of torture, Gordon said, but military investigators in 2005 concluded that al-Qahtani had been subjected to harsh treatment approved by Rumsfeld because he would not crack under interrogation. The investigation led by Air Force Lt. Gen. Randall M. Schmidt confirmed, among other things, that al-Qahtani was forced to wear women’s underwear, was threatened with dogs, and kept in solitary confinement for 160 days. At one point, he was interrogated for 18-20 hours per day on 48 of 54 days. Schmidt concluded, however, that while the treatment was abusive it was within policy and not torture because he was not denied food, water or medical care, and interrogators did not inflict physical pain on him. Al-Qahtani’s lawyer, Gitanjali Gutierrez of the Center for Constitutional Rights, said the detainee told her in meetings that he planned to recant his confession ? but this was his first chance to make any kind of official statement to U.S. authorities. “It should be disturbing to anyone,” she said.
