Inside Guantánamo Bay- abuse and torture remain an indelible stain on the United States’ history

Guantánamo Bay detention centre – a symbol of torture, rendition and indefinite detention without charge or trial – is over 20 years old.

 

21 years after the opening of an offshore detention facility specifically designed to evade the rule of law, the US government continues to detain 35 men inside the Guantánamo Bay detention camp.

 

Of these 35 men, most have never even been charged with a crime. None has had a fair trial. Many of the detainees were tortured.  

‘Very few of these men have ever been charged with a crime, and absolutely none has faced a fair trial’ - Agnès Callamard.
