Salafi University

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Salafi University is an institution near Faisalabad, Pakistan.[1]

Detainee Mohammed Mohammed Hassen, formerly a Qur'an student at Salafi, said during his Combatant Status Review Tribunal, that the University had between 150 and 200 students.[1] He said the University had a central mosque, surrounded by out-buildings, including dormitories, surrounded by a wall. He also said tuition was free.

On September 11, 2002 the foreign student's dormitory was raided and approximately a dozen of the occupants were transferred to extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba.
