Letter of June 1
The English language Arab newspaper Asharq Alawsat reported that a letter a detainee had "...written ten days before the Pentagon announced three inmates had committed suicide on June 10 ..." appears to report that “...Two detainees are on the verge of death… perhaps they are dying or have died poisoned....” Asharq Alawsat asserts that the two detainees on the verge of death were two of the men the USA claimed committed suicide.
Asharq Alawsat reports that the letter was handed by the detainee, to his lawyer, who turned it over to Talal Al Zahrani's father's lawyer. Asharq Alawsat reports that the detainee's name is being kept confidential, for his safety.
Guantanamo attorneys must all agree that they must turn over all their notes and other documents before they leave Guantanamo. They have to report to a secure document center in Washington DC center in order to review their own notes. If a detainee authored a letter suggesting Talal Al-Zahrani and the two other men didn't really commit suicide, keeping his identity confidential could not have prevented the DoD from learning his identity.
