[1] Al Naimi has stated that he was abducted by Pashtun tribesmen in Afghanistan in late 2001, and then handed over to the Pakistani authorities in return for a cash reward.
The other statement is from Mohamad Suleiman Alkaleifa, a childhood friend who testified to his good character, and lack of interest in politics.
These hearings were designed to assess the threat a detainee might pose if released or transferred, and whether there were other factors that warranted his continued detention.
[12] A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for Abdullah Al Noaimi's Administrative Review Board, on July 1, 2005.
In early September 2007, the Department of Defense released two heavily redacted memos, from his Board, to Gordon J. England, the Designated Civilian Official.
[17] Bahraini Member of Parliament Mohammed Khalid had called for the Bahrain government to provide financial compensation to the released men.
But they were still held in bad conditions in the camp by the guards.Al Naimi also said that the third dead man, Yasser Talal Al Zahrani, was only 16 when he was captured, and should have been treated as a minor.
His age shows that he is not even supposed to be taken to a police office; he should have been turned over to the underage [juvenile] authorities.The Gulf Daily News reported that Al Naimi had been arrested in Saudi Arabia in late October 2008.
In late November 2008, another Bahraini in extrajudicial detention in Saudi Arabia, Khalil Janahi, was reported to have been repatriated.
[citation needed] A 2009 article in the New York Times claimed that a Pentagon report "confirmed" that Al Noaimi had "returned to the fight" and had engaged in terrorist activity after his release from Guantanamo Bay in 2005.
