Lawyers for Adnan Latif, the Latest Prisoner to Die at Guantánamo, Issue A Statement

11.9.12

This article was published simultaneously here, and on the “Close Guantánamo” website, which I [Andy Worthington] established in January with US attorney Tom Wilner. Please join us — just an email address is required to be counted amongst those opposed to the ongoing existence of Guantánamo, and to receive updates of our activities by email. Over the weekend, Adnan Farhan Abdul Latif, a Yemeni, became the ninth prisoner to die in Guantánamo. Adnan had been repeatedly cleared for release — under President Bush and President Obama, and by a US court — but had never been freed, like so many others in that disgraceful prison, which remains an insult to the rule of law ten years and eight months since it first opened.
