Detainee 441, An Interview with Mansoor Adayfi (Guantanamo Bay)

Mansoor Adayfi was held without charge in Guantanamo Bay for over fourteen years. This was in spite of the fact that early on it was apparent he had no connection to Al Qaeda, and had essentially been sold to the CIA for a bounty. 

 

In this interview, Adam Fitzgerld and I ask Mansoor about his experience in the camps, what their real purpose was and how his faith helped him maintain his humanity for all those years. We also ask about his recently publicised encounters with Florida governor Ron DeSantis.

 

Released to Serbia in 2016, Mansoor now writes, creates art and advocates for the men who remain at Guantanamo. In 2021 he published his memoir, ‘Don’t Forget Us Here’. You can follow his activities here: https://www.mansooradayfi.com/
