Shaker Aamer

Shaker Aamer (born 21 December 1966)〔("Shaker Aamer, the last British resident held at Guantanamo Bay, is released" ), ''Telegraph'', 30 October 2015〕 is a Saudi citizen who was held by the United States in the Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba for more than thirteen years without charge.〔 He was the last British resident held in Guantanamo, released to Great Britain on October 30, 2015.〔
Aamer was seized in Afghanistan by bounty hunters, who handed him over to US forces in December 2001 during the United States invasion of the country. Two months later, the US rendered Aamer to the Guantánamo camp; he was held there without trial or charge.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Former UK ministers urge Obama to free Shaker Aamer from Guantánamo Bay )〕 Aamer had been legally resident in Britain for years before his imprisonment; the UK government repeatedly demanded his release, and many people there called for him to be released.〔〔
According to documents published in the Guantanamo Bay files leak, the US military Joint Task Force Guantanamo believed that Aamer had led a unit of fighters in Afghanistan, including the Battle of Tora Bora, while his family was paid a stipend by Osama bin Laden. The file asserts past associations with Richard Reid and Zacarias Moussaoui. Aamer denies being involved in terrorist activity and his lawyer, Clive Stafford Smith, said the leaked documents would not stand up in court. He claimed that part of the evidence came from an unreliable witness and that confessions Aamer made had been obtained through torture. Aamer’s father-in-law, Saaed Ahmed Siddique, said: "All of these claims have no basis. If any of this was true he would be in a court now." The Bush administration acknowledged later that it had no evidence against Aamer.
Aamer has never been charged with any wrongdoing, was never on trial, and his lawyer says he is "totally innocent."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=3,000 days of Guantanamo Bay imprisonment for Battersea man Shaker Aamer )〕〔 He was approved for transfer to Saudi Arabia by the Bush administration in 2007 and the Obama administration in 2009.〔 He has been described as a "charismatic leader" who spoke up and fought for the rights of fellow prisoners. Aamer says that he has been subject to torture while in detention. Campaigners allege that the US refused to release Aamer because it feared he would expose torture inside the Guantanamo prison.
Aamer has suffered decline in his mental and physical health over the years, as he participated in hunger strikes to protest his detention conditions, and was held in solitary confinement for much of the time. He claims to have lost 40 per cent of his body weight in captivity, but did not state his weight.〔 After a visit in November 2011, his lawyer said, "I do not think it is stretching matters to say that he is gradually dying in Guantanamo Bay." In 2015, despite Aamer's deteriorating health, the US denied a request for an independent medical examination. On 25 September 2015 the US government announced that Aamer would be released to the UK within the following thirty days.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Shaker Aamer, UK's last detainee in Guantánamo Bay, to be freed )〕 He was released to the UK on 30 October 2015.
==Family and personal life==
Aamer was born on 12 December 1966 and grew up in Medina in Saudi Arabia. He left the country at the age of 17. He lived and traveled in the United States, Europe and the Middle East.〔 Aamer lived and studied in Georgia and Maryland in 1989 and 1990. During the Gulf War, he worked as a translator for the U.S. Army.
He moved to the United Kingdom in 1996 where he met Zin Siddique, a British woman; they married in 1997 and he established legal residency in Britain. They have four British children. Aamer has never met his youngest son Faris, who was born after he was imprisoned.〔("Calls to free Guantanamo father" ), BBC, 8 February 2005〕 Aamer had indefinite leave to remain in the UK, and was applying for British citizenship.〔
Aamer worked as an Arabic translator for London law firms. Some of the solicitors he worked for dealt with immigration cases. In his spare time, Aamer helped refugees find accommodation and offered them advice on their struggles with the Home Office.
Aamer's family now live in Battersea, South London. His wife Zin Aamer has suffered from depression and mental episodes since his arrest.〔〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ten years in custody without charge for Battersea's Shaker Aamer )〕 Saeed Siddique, Aamer's father-in-law, said in 2011, "When he was captured, Shaker offered to let my daughter divorce him, but she said, 'No, I will wait for you.' She is still waiting."
