Ali Mohsen Salih is a citizen of Yemen who was held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba.[1] His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 221. Joint Task Force Guantanamo counter-terrorism analysts reported that he was born on October 26, 1980, in Guban, Yemen.

He was interviewed by Michelle Shephard of the Toronto Star in September 2009.[2]

Repatriation

Four men were repatriated to Kuwait on June 21, 2007.[3][4] One of the four men was identified as Ali Saleh Muhsin. He was described as suffering from "psychological disturbances."

2009 interview

Michelle Shephard, writing in the Toronto Star, traveled to Yemen in September 2009, and reported on interviews with three former Yemeni captives.[2] Mohsen is not working, and is living at home, while studying to be an electrician. Mohsen repeated, in his interview, that he had told interrogators that his only knowledge of al Qaeda came from watching Al Jazeera. Shephard said Mohsen described himself as an "angry young man", when he was repatriated from Guantanamo, and described his detention in Guantanamo as representing a barrier to employment: "In Yemen, it's hard for anybody to get a job. But it's much harder when you're a Guantanamo Bay detainee."
