Revision as of 00:50, 24 June 2006
Ridouane Khalid (born 1969) is a French citizen who was held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba.[1] Khalid's ISN was 173. The Department of Defense says his birthdate is August 16 1967.
He along with Khaled Ben Mustapha and Mustaq Ali Patel was the last French citizen held at the base. They were released in March 2005 and placed under formal investigation by a judge in Paris. Khalid has two brothers already under investigation for alleged terrorism-related matters.
Combatant Status Review Tribunal
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 a 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.
Khalid chose to participate in his Combatant Status Review Tribunal.[2]
