Uighur captives in Guantanamo

From dKosopedia

The United States held approximately two dozen Uighurs captives in Guantanamo. Eighteen of the detainees attended their Combatant Status Review Tribunals.

Uighurs are an ethnic group from Xinjiang province in the west of China.<ref name=AsiaTimes041104>China's Uighurs trapped at Guantanamo, Asia Times, November 4 2004</ref> The Uighurs call their homeland East Turkistan.

The Washington Post reported, on August 24 2005, that fifteen Uighurs had been determined not to have been "enemy combatants" after all.<ref name=Wapo050824>Chinese Detainees Are Men Without a Country: 15 Muslims, Cleared of Terrorism Charges, Remain at Guantanamo With Nowhere to Go, Washington Post, August 24 2005</ref> The Post reported that detainees who had been determined to have been not enemy combatants were, not only still being incarcerated, but were still being shackled to the floor.

Common elements in the allegations

Common elements in the detainees' testimony

East Turkistan Islamic Movement

All the Uighurs who were asked about the East Turkistan Islamic Movement denied any contact with this organization. They all denied any participation in any political parties or organizations.

AK-47 training

All the detainees either denied receiving any training on the AK-47, or they said that the training they had received was minimal -- that they were shown how to disassemble the rifle, and were allowed to fire a couple of rounds. They all described being trained individually, by Uighurs named either Abdul Haq, or Hassan Maksum. They all denied being trained on any other weapons, or seeing any of the other Uighurs receive training on any other weapons.

Fleeing the camp after it was bombed

All the Uighurs reported that they did not expect their camp to be bombed. Some of the Uighurs acknowledged that they had heard of the attacks of September 11, 2001 on the radio. But none of them knew that the Taliban were accused of involvement. They all acknowledged having fled the camp when it was bombed. They all claimed they were unarmed. One of the Uighurs said Maksum was killed in the bombing.

Motives

None of the Uighurs described seeing the United States as an enemy. All of the Uighurs who mentioned the Chinese government described them as oppressive occupiers. Some of the Uighurs said that they sought out the training in order to go back to China and defend their fellow Uighurs against their Chinese occupiers.

Some of the other Uighurs said they sought out the camp of fellow Uighurs because they were waiting for a visa to Iran, one of the countries they had to pass through on their way to Turkey. They had heard that Turkey would grant them political asylum.

Combatant Status Review Tribunal results

From July 2004 through March 2005 all 568 of the detainees held at Guantanamo had their detention reviewed by Combatant Status Review Tribunals. 38 of the detainees were determined not to have been "enemy combatants" after all. Some or all of the Uighurs were among the 38 detainees determined not to have been enemy combatants, and were transferred from the main detention camp, to more pleasant incarceration at Camp Iguana.

This conclusion was remarked on by the Denbeaux study, that pointed out that many of the detainees who remained incarcerated had faced much less serious allegations than the Uighurs had faced.

On May 10 2006 Radio Free Asia reported that the five Uighurs transported to Albania were the only Uighurs who had been moved to Camp Iguana.<ref name=Rfa060510> Guantanamo Uyghurs Try to Settle in Albania, Radio Free Asia, May 10 2006</ref>

}}</ref> This memo, dated 30 October 2004, provides one paragraph biographies of 22 Uighur captives. The memo asserts that all 22 captives are suspected of membership in the "East Turkistan Islamic Movement". The memo describes the Uighur camp as an "ETIM training camp".

Annual reviews

Detainees who were determined to have been properly classified as "enemy combatants" were scheduled to have their dossier reviewed at annual Administrative Review Board hearings.<ref name=JtfGtmoPao20071029> Template:Cite news</ref> The Administrative Review Boards weren't authorized to review whether a detainee qualified for POW status, and they weren't authorized to review whether a detainee should have been classified as an "enemy combatant".

They were authorized to consider whether a detainee should continue to be detained by the United States, because they continued to pose a threat -- or whether they could safely be repatriated to the custody of their home country, or whether they could be set free.

The first Administrative Review Boards convened in late December 2004, and completed in December 2005. A second set is known to have convened in 2006. In September 2007 the Department of Defense published all the Summary of Evidence memos prepared for the 2005 and 2006 Review Boards. The Department of Defense published the records of the recommendations of captives who had been repatriated or released through their review Boards. Some of the Uyghurs remain in Guantanamo, even though they

Asylum

None of the Uighurs wanted to be returned to China. The United States declined to grant the Uighurs political asylum, or to allow them parole, or even freedom on the Naval Base.

Some of the Uighurs had lawyers who volunteered to help them pursue a writ of habeas corpus, which would have been one step in getting them freed from American detention.

Five of the Uighurs were transported to Albania, on Friday May 5 2006. Those Uighurs were scheduled to have arguments for their writ of habeas corpus argued in US District Court on Monday May 8 2006. Barbara Olshansky, one of the Uighur's lawyers, characterized the sudden transfer as an attempt to: "...avoid having to answer in court for keeping innocent men in jail,<ref name=Bbc060506>Albania takes Guantanamo Uighurs, BBC, May 6 2006</ref>"

Some press reports state that the Uighurs have been granted political asylum in Albania. But the U.S. government press release merely states that they are applying for asylum in Albania.

On May 9 2006 the Associated Press reported that China denounced the transfer of custody.<ref name=ApNews060509>China Demands Return of Gitmo Detaniees, Associated Press, May 9 2006</ref><ref name=Jurist060509>China wants Gitmo Uighurs back, says Albania transfer breaks international law, The Jurist, May 9 2006</ref> China called the transfer of the Uighurs to Albania a violation of international law. Albania agreed to examine the evidence against the men.

Radio Free Asia reports that the five were staying at a National Center for Refugees in a Tirana suburb.<ref name=Rfa060510> Guantanamo Uyghurs Try to Settle in Albania, Radio Free Asia, May 10 2006</ref>

On May 24 2006 Abu Bakr Qasim told interviewers that he and his compatriots felt isolated in Albania.<ref name=Upi060524> 5 Guantanamo Uighurs baffled in Albania, United Press International, May 24 2006</ref> Qasim described his disappointment with the United States, who the Uighurs had been hoping would support the Uighurs quest for Uighur autonomy.

In an interview with ABC News Qasim said that members of the American-Urghur community had come forward and assured the American government that they would help him and his compatriots adapt to life in America, if they were given asylum in America.<ref name=Abc060523> Guantanamo's Innocents: Newly Released Prisoners Struggle to Find a Home, ABC News, May 23 2006</ref>
