Anwar Hassan is an Uyghur refugee who was wrongly imprisoned for more than seven years in the United States Guantanamo Bay detention camps.〔http://ccrjustice.org/newsroom/press-releases/17-innocent-uighurs-detained-guant%C3%A1namo-ask-supreme-court-release〕 Hassan is one of the 22 Uighurs held in Guantanamo for many years despite it becoming clear early on that they were innocent.〔〔(China's Uighurs trapped at Guantanamo ), ''Asia Times'', November 4, 2004〕 ==Combatant Status Review Tribunals== Initially the Bush administration asserted that they could withhold all the protections of the Geneva Conventions to captives from the war on terror. This policy was challenged before the Judicial branch. Critics argued that the USA could not evade its obligation to conduct competent tribunals to determine whether captives are, or are not, entitled to the protections of prisoner of war status. Subsequently the Department of Defense instituted the 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 enemy combatant. Hassan is one of the captives known to have had multiple reviews convened, after his initial review determined he was not an enemy combatant. According to the study entitled, No-hearing hearings, Hassan Anvar did not choose to attend his Tribunal.〔 〕 The study identified Hassan as one of the captive whose first Tribunal had determined that they should not had been classified as an "enemy combatant" in the first place, only to have subsequent Tribunals convened, which reversed the earlier determination.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hassan Anvar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
