Administrative Review BoardMember's questions:

I am wondering where document seventeen is Itis notin my package anyway

Assisting Military Officer cannotgive a satisfactory answerto that question because I copied it just as it was handedto meby the Detainee

Presiding Officer: So there is a possibility that there is a page missing here or that he missed the count ?

Inthe eventthat anyoneasksthe question is documentseventeen ?' like I did, don'tthink there is a documentseventeen.

AssistingMilitaryOfficer: One possibility is that inthe processofcopying the original that he handedus, which we gave back to him , it referringto the copy machine) mayhave double fed two sheets......

I and my Lawyer answered all accusations mentioned at the CSRT or at the interview before. It was just four accusations. I answered all of them in details with preemptory proof it was not true. Some of these papers and answers are enclosed in Exhibit 2 After the windup from the first board (CSRT), I am seeing creation or makingup anew accusations different than the old accusations ? And all these accusations also are not true. I demand statements from many parties to prove that all these accusations are not true. You did not llowme or the AMO to call my family and other people,which I demand statements from . For example, I am not an employee at Sanibel charity organization. I demand a statement from the head ofattorneys inEnglandand their society (Law Society), which I associated. I demand a statement from newscaster for the nightly news program at BBC Broadcasting station, whom he searched accusations against me, he found it is not true and he announce this live to the people inEngland. The newscaster agreed to send his statement. His name is Jeremy Paxman; the one who assisted him inhis search was Peter Marshall. The head of the Law Society his name is Peter Carter and he has knowledgeof the accusation he said they are not true.

I demand from you to contact the minister of Foreign Affairs, Barones Symons, who played a major part in the government decision (UK government ) to directly intervene in as reported by on Sunday 24 Apr 05 .

I demand a statement from Professor Bill Bowys is a barrister in Britain.

Enciosure( 4 ) 20886 UNCLASSIFIED EC - Page of 10 UNCLASSIFIED

I demanda statementfrom the Britishconsulate(BritishEmbassy) Youdidn't let to coordinate with the AMO to bringthese writtenstatements. The day before yesterday, 01 June 2005 I met with the AMO. He mentioned to me about the ARB and I mentionedto bim what I neededto defend myselfand bringout the mistake you fall in.

He said he would try to bringall of them , and the next day, 02 Jun , came to tell me the ARB proceedingwill be on03 Jun 2005. He didn't call allthe people I demand the statementsfrom to be on my side.

When the AMO first met with me the day before yesterday, 01 Jun 05 he told me the * meeting will be in the coming days, he didn't say on 03 Jun 05

When I met with the AMO I told him I to consult with my lawyer, and my lawyer Clive Smith wanted to talk to the AMO . I gave my lawyer's web site and his email. My Lawyer want to ask some questions about my accusations and the ARB so he can furnish what is necessary for statements and legal advice to me. Going to the Internet doesn't cost any effort difficulties, butthe AMO didn't call my lawyer. Yesterday, 02 Jun 05 the AMO told me that the ARB meeting will be on 03 Jun 05. I was surprised ; I said to him I need to call my lawyer to consult with him about some legal things as you said to us we are allowed to call a lawyer in an emergency case. Untilthis hour the AMO never came back to me and let me know ifI can. With all my insistence for the importance ofthis call before, I go in front of the ARB .

I don't have enough time to prepare one logical defense ; this is a wrongdoing and not the right way to reach truth and fairness . is a very different way from what we hearthat the UnitedStates is a democratic state and the law with the humanrights. This waybringsmemoriesofthe proceduresoftheRevolutionCommittees in .

About the count #A, Commitment.

Enclosure( 4 ) 20887 UNCLASSIFIED EC- Page of UNCLASSIFIED

I have some answers for all these points, some ofthem mentioned in Appendix A and B, but I will mention little things only. For example , on count # 5 [ The detainee went to Bosnia to join the . The detainee enjoyed his experience in Bosnia and believed itwas a good Muslim cause ),

I went to Bosniawith a Canadian charity organization, registeredin Canada. Itdoesn't have anythingto do with any religionconnections. Itis a organizationnamed HumanRights Agency. It supports Muslims by givingthem food and clothes and others, too . What makesbad act ?

#6 Detainee's travel from to Afghanistan was facilitated by a senior al Qaida Lieutenant answer this on Appendix A. You didn't tell me when and where and who is he so I can defend myself.

About the other relevant data

[ The detainee received two months of solitary confinement as punishment for assaulting a soldier at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba) This is not right. We move all the time with chains on our hands, legs and the middle of the body. How I can assault a soldierinthis case ? But what happened to me inthese camps is the reverse,assaults from the soldiers against detainees etc. Details in Appendix 2. Also,I was in a solitary confinement at Oscar and November more than 1 year punishment, for what? Not only two months. And now for more than one year in Camp V confinement punishmentfor what ?

Enclosure ( ) 20889 UNCLASSIFIED EC- Page4 of UNCLASSIFIED

I have a lot to say (about) the procedurefor the ARB didn't give me chancesto defend myself, taking in considerationtime, lack offulfillment to provide me with apaper and pen, for example ...etc.That is why I decided not to attend, protesting and showingto all people that we are not getting nearer square deal ofrequirements, agreed upon human beings. I have a lot ofanswers and replies, for all the accusations but I will keep it till I will have the right and fulfillment ofsome . For your information I don't pencil or papers to write on , any notes or comments in the meetings. I got these papers yesterday only (02 Jun 05) : yesterday' would have been 01 Jun 05 . The pencil was very bad and given to me yesterday only. They took it back when they exchange soldiers. They brought hardly back today in the moming (03 Jun05) (note: 02 Jun 03 the writer is offby one day )

For many other reasons I remain my full right to answer at the appropriate time and place.
