Al-Jazeera journalist imprisoned in Guantánamo Bay to sue George Bush
Sami al-Haj – freed in May 2008 after more than six years – to launch legal action against former US president
An al-Jazeera journalist who was imprisoned in Guantánamo Bay plans to launch a joint legal action with other detainees against former US president George Bush and other administration officials, for the illegal detention and torture he and others suffered at the hands of US authorities.
The case will be initiated by the Guantánamo Justice Centre, a new organisation open to former prisoners at the US base, which will set up its international headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, later this month.
