Combatant Status Review Tribunal[edit]

[[Wikipedia:Image:Trailer where CSR Tribunals were held.jpg|thumb|Wikipedia:Combatant Status Review Tribunals were held in a trailer the size of a large Wikipedia:RV. The captive sat on a plastic garden chair, with his hands and feet shackled to a bolt in the floor.[2][3] Three chairs were reserved for members of the press, but only 37 of the 574 Tribunals were observed.[4]Template:POV-section]]

Initially the Bush administration asserted that they could withhold all the protections of the Wikipedia:Geneva Conventions to captives from Wikipedia:the war on terror. This policy was challenged before the Judicial branch. Critics argued that the USA could not evade its obligation to conduct a Wikipedia:competent tribunals to determine whether captives are, or are not, entitled to the protections of Wikipedia:prisoner of war status.

Subsequently the [[Wikipedia:Department of Defense instituted the Wikipedia:Combatant Status Review Tribunals. The Tribunals, however, were not authorized to determine whether the captives were lawful combatants -- rather they were merely empowered to make a recommendation as to whether the captive had previously been correctly determined to match the Bush administration's definition of an Wikipedia:enemy combatant.

Transcript[edit]

Al Shumrani chose not to participate in his Wikipedia:Combatant Status Review Tribunal.[6] But he did dictate a statement to his Personal Representative:

"I Mohammad Bin Adbul Rahman Al Shamrani, detainee in Cuba, No. 195. I tell you I don’t believe in the American Justice Department and your Supreme Court. So judge me the way you like. I’m looking forward for god to judge between me and you."

Muhammad Abd Al-Rahman Al-Shumrant v. George W. Bush[edit]

A Wikipedia:writ of habeas corpus was submitted on Muhammad Abd Al-Rahman Al-Shumrant's behalf.[7] Wikipedia:US District Court Judge Wikipedia:Rosemary Collyer considered his case.[8] In response, on Wikipedia:10 January Wikipedia:2006 the Department of Defense released 16 pages of unclassified documents related to his Combatant Status Review Tribunal. Wikipedia:Tribunal panel 15 confirmed his "enemy combatant" status on Wikipedia:18 October Wikipedia:2004.

On Wikipedia:June 10 Wikipedia:2006 three captives died -- authorities said it was suicide. Authorities suspected that the alleged suicides were coordinated through the captives' habeas attorneys. Camp authorities responded by seizing all the captives' papers, including all their habeas papers.[8]

Administrative Review Board hearing[edit]

Detainees who were determined to have been properly classified as "enemy combatants" were scheduled to have their dossier reviewed at annual Wikipedia:Administrative Review Board hearings. The Administrative Review Boards weren't authorized to review whether a detainee qualified for POW status, and they weren't authorized to review whether a detainee should have been classified as an "enemy combatant".

They were authorized to consider whether a detainee should continue to be detained by the United States, because they continued to pose a threat -- or whether they could safely be repatriated to the custody of their home country, or whether they could be set free.

First annual Administrative Review Board[edit]

A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for Mohammad Al Rahman Al Shumrani Administrative Review Board, on Wikipedia:26 October Wikipedia:2005.[10] The memo listed factors for and against his continued detention.

Second annual Administrative Review Board[edit]

A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for Muhammad Abd Al Rahman Al Shumrant Administrative Review Board, on Wikipedia:25 September Wikipedia:2006.[11] The memo listed factors for and against his continued detention.

Habeas corpus petition[edit]

A writ of Wikipedia:habeas corpus was filed on Sanad Ali Yislam Al-Kazimi's behalf.

Military Commissions Act[edit]

The Wikipedia:Military Commissions Act of 2006 mandated that Guantanamo captives were no longer entitled to access the US civil justice system, so all outstanding habeas corpus petitions were stayed.[12]

Boumediene v. Bush[edit]

On Wikipedia:June 12 Wikipedia:2008 the Wikipedia:United States Supreme Court ruled, in Wikipedia:Boumediene v. Bush, that the Wikipedia:Military Commissions Act could not remove the right for Wikipedia:Guantanamo captives to access the US Federal Court system. And all previous Guantanamo captives' habeas petitions were eligible to be re-instated. The judges considering the captives' habeas petitions would be considering whether the evidence used to compile the allegations the men and boys were enemy combatants justified a classification of "enemy combatant".[13]

Status report[edit]

On 18 July 2008 Wikipedia:Martha Rayner filed a "Status report for petitioners Wikipedia:Mohammed Al-Shimrani (Wikipedia:ISN 195) and Wikipedia:Sanad Al-Kazimi (Wikipedia:ISN 1453)".[14]
