A former drive of al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden, has claimed that he was sexually humiliated and groped by a touchy-feely female interrogator at the Guantanamo Bay prison.
According to the New York Post, a lawyer representing Salim Ahmed Hamdan, said the woman put her hand on his thigh and behaved in an "improper" way that made him uncomfortable as a Muslim.
"She came very close with her whole body toward me," he testified through an interpreter. "I couldn't do anything."
Hamdan, a 37-year-old Yemeni, became visibly disturbed when his lawyer asked him about the female interrogator.
He refused to specifically enunciate where the woman touched him - instead he pointed to his waist.
Hamdan is scheduled to face trial next week by a US military tribunal on charges of conspiracy and providing support to terrorism. He faces up to life in prison.
Other male prisoners in Gitmo have described similarly provocative encounters with female interrogators at the military prison.
In Islam such contact between an unmarried man and woman is considered haraam - extremely forbidden.
Prosecutors scoffed at Hamdan's allegation and challenged his credibility - arguing that he has lied to his captors about the details of his capture.
Hamdan was nabbed at a roadblock in Afghanistan in November 2001 and is accused of helping his boss, terror mastermind bin Laden, escape just after the US invasion.
Hamdan is one of 20 detainees facing charges at Guantanamo, where the United States holds roughly 265 men for links to al Qaeda or the Taliban. (ANI)
Can I get sent to Gitmo? ;)
It’s a one way ticket....with a stop in Afghanistan first...
OPINION:
So, let’s see, he had a pat search before interrogation.
Yep, that should sell papers — to potty train puppy
dogs in Scotland.
Improper, indeed. (/sarcasm)
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHA!
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
you can’t make this crap up.
“said the woman put her hand on his thigh and behaved in an “improper” way that made him uncomfortable as a Muslim.”
I can’t think of anything funny to say, cuz I can’t stop laughing long enough to organize my thoughts!
he poor bastard is used to goats...not females
another example of US not being politically and culturally correct
Meaning: She never did this with at least six Muslims in the room so I couldn't rape her the way the little Infidel deserves.
The guy has been in relative isolation from any females for a while, even his sisters, his aunts and his cousins. Sexual fantasies must play a large part of these Gitmo prisoners’ spare time, of which they seem to have a considerable measure.
Hard to keep fantasy from being mixed up with brief moments of reality, under those circumstances.
Sure beats having your head cut off.
We’re being played for fools.
(and behaved in an “improper” way that made him uncomfortable as a Muslim. )
While his being a muslim with the associated head chopping off nail bombs IED subjugation of women and no freedom is not sopposed to make us uncomfortable
It's hard to read a headline like this during this election cycle; and not initially think it's about the Presidential election.
Yes - sad to say, that about sums it up — insane to say the very least.
Please, not another Larry Sinclair story. LOL
Salim Ahmed-Speed-Racer here is concerned that the once cannon fodder for his bosses bombs was touching his waist?
He refused to specifically enunciate where the woman touched him - instead he pointed to his waist.
What the hell's he worried about? Any such infraction of that law seems to result in the woman getting the chop.
These low lifes are trained to claim abuse if captured, but this one is making himself look especially silly, or making Islam look especially silly.
He woud prefer a goat.
