List of Uzbekistani detainees at Guantanamo Bay

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Jabbarow Oybek Jamolivich)

On May 15, 2006, the United States Department of Defense acknowledged that there have been 7 Uzbek detainees held in Guantanamo.[1] The Guantanamo Bay detainment camps were opened on January 11, 2002, at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, in Cuba. The Bush administration asserted that all detainees taken in the "global war on terror" could be held there, in extrajudicial detention, without revealing their names. So far as the detainee's families and friends would know, they would just disappear.

However, the Associated Press had filed a Freedom of Information Act request for the names of all the detainee. The Department of Defense filed justifications for why they should not be obliged to release the information the Associated Press requested. They justified keeping the information secret not to protect the United States "national security", but merely because they were concerned to protect the detainee's privacy.

The Department of Defense exhausted their legal appeals and were forced, by a court order, to release the identities of all the Guantanamo detainees.
