Lahur Gul

Who is Lahur Gul?

Lahur Gul is a citizen of Afghanistan held in extrajudicial detention in the United States' Bagram Theater internment facility.

Lahur Gul participated in a Bagram Status Review hearing on May 26, 2010, similar to the Combatant Status Review Tribunals held in the Guantanamo Bay detention camps in Cuba. He testified that all he had been doing at the time he was captured was collecting firewood.

Reuters reported that the uniform he had been issued consisted of "bottle-green overalls over loose brown trousers" -- and that this indicated camp authorities regarded him as a medium risk.

On January 15, 2010, the Department of Defense complied with a court order and published a list of Captives held in the Bagram Theater Internment Facility that included the name '. The list of September 22, 2009, listed 645 names. According to that list a captive held in the camp on that date was named Lahur Gul, and his Internment Serial Number was 3984.
