Mamdouh Habib

Mamdouh Habib was arrested on October 5, 2001 in Karachi, Pakistan.

During October 2001, Mamdouh was detained in Pakistan, beaten and humiliated by the Pakistanis, and interrogated by the Americans.

In November 2001, Mamdouh was sent to Egypt where for the next five months, overlapping with Madni, his Egyptian captors shocked him with high-voltage wires, hung him from metal hooks on walls and beat him, before he was eventually sent to Guantanamo Bay.

According to three British men who were in Guantanamo - Rhuhel Ahmed, Asif Iqbal and Shafiq Rasul - Mamdouh Habib was in “catastrophic shape” when he arrived at Guantanamo: most of his fingernails were missing, and when he was asleep he regularly bled from his nose, mouth and ears.
