Muhammad Sagheer
Sagheer is described in his leaked assessment file as a 'farmer and missionary' who was arrested in Kunduz - on his first trip outside the country.
Lakhdar Boumedine, who spent seven years in detention
“RECRUITERS typically scan his résumé with an air of approval, he said, until noting that it ends in 2001. He tells them that his is a “particular case,” that he spent time in prison. He avoids the word “Guantánamo,” he said, as it often stirs more fear than sympathy.”
Omar Khadr
Khadr was arrested when he was 15 years old, and released to Canada in 2012
