Inayatullah is a citizen of Afghanistan who was held in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba.[1][2][3] His Guantánamo Internment Serial Number was 10029.
Until his death, Inayatullah was held in Guantánamo for 3 years, 8 months, and 22 days.[4][5][6][7]
The US claims he admitted being an al Qaeda leader.[4] They claim he was headquartered in Zahedan, Iran.
"Inayatullah met with local operatives, developed travel routes and coordinated documentation, accommodation and vehicles for smuggling unlawful combatants throughout countries including Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and Iraq."
Inayatullah is the 19th captive to have been transferred to Guantánamo since September 6, 2006.[4] Prior to the transfer of fourteen high value detainees, on that date, who had previously been held in secret detention centers run by the CIA, the USA hadn't transferred any captives to Guantánamo since the United States Supreme Court ruling in Rasul v. Bush.
In late November 2008 the New York Times published a page summarizing the official documents from each captive.[8] The New York Times stated that no further official records of his detention—no Combatant Status Review Tribunal had been published.[9] They identified him as identified captive 10029.
On May 18, 2011, Inayatullah was found dead either in his cell or in a recreation area. The cause of his death is unknown but the U.S. military released a statement saying that he died in an "apparent suicide".[10][11][12]
