Ramzi bin al-Shibh ((アラビア語:رمزي بن الشيبة), ; also transliterated as bin al-Shaibah) (born May 1, 1972〔(Indictment of Zacarias Moussaoui ), with supporting conspirators, Ramzi bin al-Shibh and Mustafa al-Hawsawi. Filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.〕) is a Yemeni citizen being held by the United States as an enemy combatant detainee at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. He is accused of being a "key facilitator for the September 11 attacks" in 2001 in the United States.〔 〕 In the mid-1990s, bin al-Shibh moved as a student to Hamburg, Germany, where he allegedly became close friends with Mohamed Atta, Ziad Jarrah and Marwan al-Shehhi. Together, they are suspected of forming the Hamburg cell and becoming central perpetrators of the September 11 attacks. He was the only one of the four who failed to obtain a US visa; he is accused of acting as an intermediary for the hijackers in the United States, by wiring money and passing on information from key al-Qaeda figures. After the attacks, bin al-Shibh was the first to be publicly identified by the US as the "20th hijacker", of whom there have been several more likely candidates. Bin al-Shibh has been in United States custody since he was captured on September 11, 2002, in Karachi, Pakistan.〔He was captured after a gun battle in Karachi with the Pakistani ISI and the CIA's Special Activities Division a year after the attacks.〕 He was held by the CIA in black sites in Morocco before being transferred to Guantanamo Bay in September 2006. Finally charged in 2008 before a military commission, he and several others suspected in the 9/11 attacks went to trial beginning in May 2012. ==Early life== Ramzi bin al-Shibh was born in Hadhramaut province in Yemen.〔 When he was young, his family moved to a working-class neighborhood in the capital, Sana'a. In 1987, his father died. He was cared for by his older brother, Ahmed, and his mother.〔 In 1987, while still in high school, bin al-Shibh worked part-time as a clerk for the International Bank of Yemen. He continued working there until 1995.〔 Bin al-Shibh applied for a U.S. visa in 1995, but his request was denied.〔 He went to Germany, where he requested political asylum, claiming that he was a political refugee from Sudan. He lived in Hamburg until 1997, when the judge refused his asylum request.〔 Bin al-Shibh returned to the Hadramaut region of Yemen. A short while later he received a German visa under his real name.〔 While he was in Germany, bin al-Shibh used the name Ramzi Omar. In 1997, bin al-Shibh met Mohamed Atta at a mosque; he was the leader of the Hamburg cell. For two years, Atta and bin al-Shibh were roommates in Germany.〔 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「Ramzi bin al-Shibh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
