☆ Tougher Security Measures Are Causing Upset at Guantánamo Prison
  + stars: | 2024-04-02 | by ( Carol Rosenberg | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
In a protest over tougher security measures at the Guantánamo Bay prison, a lawyer for the man accused of plotting the U.S.S. Cole bombing asked a judge on Tuesday to have the prisoner unshackled during legal meetings, invoking his torture by the C.I.A. Guards let the man, Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, meet his lawyers more than 150 times while he was unshackled from 2019 until late last year, said Lt. Cmdr. Now the change has re-traumatized the prisoner and impeded his lawyers’ ability to communicate and work with him. “We are asking to be in the room with him unshackled as we were for four and a half years,” Commander Piette said.

☆ How a Judge’s Ruling on Torture Imperils a Guantánamo Prosecution Strategy
  + stars: | 2023-08-26 | by ( Carol Rosenberg | More About Carol Rosenberg | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
In late 2006, in an effort to turn the page on a legacy of state-sponsored torture, prosecutors for the George W. Bush administration began an experiment at Guantánamo Bay. They set up teams of law enforcement officers to try to obtain voluntary confessions from men who had spent years in brutal conditions in isolated C.I.A. A military judge declared that experiment a failure, at least in one case. In a wide-ranging ruling, Col. Lanny J. Acosta Jr. threw out a confession that federal agents at Guantánamo Bay obtained in 2007 from a Saudi prisoner who is accused of plotting the suicide bombing of the U.S.S. But Mr. Nashiri, who was arrested in 2002, had spent four years in secret C.I.A.

☆ U.N. Body Condemns Torture of Guantánamo Prisoner Awaiting Capital Trial
  + stars: | 2023-06-04 | by ( Carol Rosenberg | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Why It Matters: Criticism of Guantánamo Bay is mounting, again. The report could be presented to a sentencing jury of U.S. military officers in Mr. Nashiri’s case. In October 2021, a military jury in the case of another Guantánamo prisoner who was tortured by the C.I.A. Mr. Nashiri’s lawyers describe him as a torture survivor who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and other conditions attributed to untreated physical, psychological and sexual abuse. Mr. Nashiri has more hearings this month focused on what evidence can be used at his eventual capital trial.
