COMBATANT STATUS REVIEW BOARD


To: Personal Representative
From: OIC, CSRT (13 October 2004)
Subject: Summary of Evidence for Combatant Status Review Tribunal [ (b)(6) ]


1.

Under the provisions of the Secretary of the Navy Memorandum, dated 29 July 2004, Implementation of Combatant Status Review Tribunal Procedures for Enemy Combatants Detained at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base Cuba, a Tribunal has been appointed to review the detainee's designation as an enemy combatant.

2.

An enemy combatant has been defined as "an individual who was part of or supporting the Taliban or al Qaida forces, or associated forces that are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners. This included any person who committed a belligerent act or has directly supported hostilities in aid of enemy armed forces."

3.

The United States Government has previously determined that the detainee is an enemy combatant. This determination is based on information possessed by the United States that indicates that he is associated with al Qaida and the Taliban.

a. The detainee is associated with al Qaida and the Taliban:
1.

The detainee is ############## who traveled to Jalalabad, Afghanistan via Morocco; and Pakistan in August 2001.

2.

The detainee was identified as a suspected terrorist facilitator in Italy and as being a suspected member of the Algerian Armed Islamic Group.

3.

The Algerian Armed Islamic Group is listed as a terrorist organization.

4.

The detainee was identified by a senior al Qaida operative as an individual known to be a good document forger in Peshawar, Pakistan.

5.

The same senior al Qaida operative noted that the detainee was familiar with the Tunisians in Italy.

6.

The detainee and ############# reportedly were recruited in Italy and eventually indoctrinated and mobilized for the "Defense of the Islamic Cause in Bosnia, Chechnya and Afghanistan".

7.

The detainee reportedly received military training on the use of light arms in the Derunta Camp in Jalalabad, Afghanistan.

8.

The detainee may have associated with the Taliban near Khowst, Afghanistan.

9.

The detainee possibly has been associated with Tunisian training camps in Afghanistan.

10.

The detainee possibly has been associated with the Tunisian Combat Group (TCG/CGT) who declared Jihad against the west in support of Usama Bin Ladin.

11.

The Tunisian Combat Group (TCG/CGT) is listed as a terrorist organization and is associated with al Qaida.

12.

The detainee was captured in Peshawar, Pakistan.

4.

The detainee has the opportunity to contest his designation as an enemy combatant. The Tribunal will endeavor to arrange for the presence of any reasonably available witnesses or evidence that the detainee desires to call or introduce to prove that he is not an enemy combatant. The Tribunal President will determine the reasonable availability of availability of evidence or witnesses.
