Physical, psychological torture of inmates was common practice at US Guantanamo Bay prison, says former Yemeni detainee Mansoor Adayfi, who spent 15 years there due to having a similar name with a terrorist suspect
The detention facility is "a military lab for experimenting on prisoners," says former Yemeni detainee Mansoor Adayfi.The physical and psychological torture of inmates was a common practice at the US Guantanamo Bay detention facility in Cuba, a former Yemeni detainee who spent 15 years there due to his name being similar to that of a terrorist suspect has said.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Mansoor Adayfi highlighted how the US spy agency CIA used unreliable information from local informants to transport people from Afghanistan, Iraq and Yemen as well as other countries to Guantanamo. Adayfi underscored that the US deliberately designed Guantanamo prison to evade legal restrictions, saying the US denies any wrongdoing concerning the facility.
“Guantanamo has a bigger goal. It turned out to be a military lab for experimenting on prisoners. At the same time, George W Bush and his administration invaded Afghanistan and announced the war on terror. "They needed to show some results, so they brought people in orange jumpsuits and shipped them to Guantanamo as the worst of the worst. The only prisoners who are there are Muslims,” he said.
