"This permits coerced evidence and hearsay, if the judge considers them to be “reliable” and “probative,” and Judge Allred confirmed that Hamdan had indeed been subjected to legally dubious treatment by ruling out the use of any testimony obtained when he was held in Afghanistan after his capture, both at the US-run prison at Bagram, and, as had never previously been disclosed, at an Afghan prison in the Panjshir Valley, north of Kabul. The Panjshir prison was one of several prisons in which, as my research for The Guantánamo Files revealed, numerous “ghost prisoners” who ended up in Bagram were subjected to what one of the prison’s captives, a Libyan who escaped from Bagram in July 2005, later described as “hard torture.”"

"Furthermore, Omar Deghayes told me that, in Guantánamo, another prisoner had spoken about being held with al-Libi in the Panjshir prison. That prisoner — who is still held — is Sanad al-Kazimi, a Yemeni seized in the United Arab Emirates in January 2003, who was then rendered to secret CIA prisons in Afghanistan — including the “Dark Prison” — where he was tortured for a year and eight months before being transferred to Guantánamo."
