User:Geo Swan/Abdullah Salim al-Qahtani

Abdullah Salim al-Qahtani was held in the Central Intelligence Agency's network of black sites. He was captured in 2003.

In December 2014 the United States Senate Intelligence Committee released an unclassified summary of its huge report on the CIA's use of torture, which confirmed Shaukat had been held in CIA custody. The Senate report concluded he had been illegally subjected to torture without authorization from CIA headquarters. The Senate report concluded that Shaukat had never been part of al Qaida, he had merely once been neighbors with individuals who later may have joined al Qaida.

The CIA captured him in 2002, and held Shaukat for about two months.
