That guy was on ITV's "Tonight" TV documentary. All I can say is he was captured by the Talaban while travelling from Pakistan to Turkey as a possible British spy and jailed by them. The USA sent him to camp X-ray for some reason.

I think the bad part was he was given a jail 2.5 meters by 2.5 meters and only allowed five minutes exercise outside it per week. That must of been a truely terrible ordeal. No reason for it either (if it is true).

All the other stuff was no big deal really. The injections he had to take were probably for his own health I would guess.

I think he must of been a fairly tough guy to survive all that injustice and cramped living for two years. He came across like a typical British guy, although he is a muslim, with a ethnic background from Pakistan.

He seemed OK to me in all respects.
