Mohamedou Ould Slahi is a Mauritanian engineer who gained international recognition due to his unjust detention at Guantánamo Bay for over fourteen years without charge. Despite facing accusations of ties to al-Qaeda, his case sparked legal debates and led to his eventual release in 2016. Slahi’s experience of torture and mistreatment while in detention raised concerns about human rights abuses. He authored a bestselling memoir, “Guantánamo Diary,” shedding light on his ordeal and becoming the first detainee to publish a book while still imprisoned.
