Adel Bin Ahmed Bin Ibrahim Hkiml
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adel Bin Ahmed Bin Ibrahim Hkiml is a citizen of Tunisia, held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba.[1] His Guantanamo detainee ID number is 168. The US Department of Defense reports that he was born on March 27, 1965. in Bin Aroes, Tunisia.
[edit] Identity
Initially, the Department of Defense's policy was to refrain from revealing any information about the identity of the captives. But, the DoD exhausted all its legal appeals in opposition to a Freedom of Information Act request, and was forced to release the identities of the captives, with a deadline of 6 pm on March 3, 2006. The DoD didn't fully comply right away. The DoD released an official list of all 558 captives whose secret determination as a "enemy combatant" status was re-assessed by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal on April 20, 2006.[2] The DoD finally released what they described as a full list of all the captives who had been held in Guantanamo — in military custody.[1]
This captive is notable because these two lists bore completely different names:
- On April 20, 2006 captive 168 was listed as Muhammed Ibn Arfan Shaheen.[2]
- On May 15, 2006 captive 168 was listed as Adel Bin Ahmed Bin Ibrahim Hkiml.[1]
Both lists said captive 168 was from Tunisia.
