Mohammed Nechle (born 2 April 1968) is a Bosnian citizen who was wrongly held for almost seven years as an "enemy combatant" in the United States's Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba.

He won his habeas corpus and US District Court Judge Richard J. Leon wrote that there was no evidence that Nechle intended to travel to Afghanistan to take up arms against US forces.

Critics argued that the USA could not evade its obligation to conduct competent tribunals to determine whether detainees are, or are not, entitled to the protections of prisoner of war status.

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.

It would have been hard even if I had done something wrong, but it is much harder if one is totally innocent.On 16 December 2008, Mustafa Idr, Boudella al Hajj and Mohammed Nechle were released to Bosnia.
