Samarkhil training camp
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joint Task Force Guantanamo counter-terrorism analysts allege that some of the captives held in extrajudicial detention attended an Afghan training camp they call the Samarkhil training camp.[1]
The Summary of Evidence memo prepared for British resident Omar Amer Deghayes's second annual Administrative Review Board, on 8 August 2006 stated[1]:
- "A senior al Qaida operative stated that he facilitated the detainee's travel to a Libyan camp in Afghanistan."
- "An individual stated that the detainee came to Afghanistan in 1998 and was trained at Samarkhil or Samardil Camp."
- "A detainee of a foreign service stated that a Libyan Islamic Fighting Group camp was opened in the Samarkhil region near Jalalabad, Afghanistan in 1998."
