you some questions and to help, okay?
...answer my questions the best that you can and we'll do...
...what we can and get you out of here as soon
as we can.
Do you know any whereabouts of my mates
Asif and Shaf?
Are these the two friends of yours you
arrived in the country with?
Your two friends, people you describe as
friends...
...have reportedly said that...
...you're with Al Queda.
- That's bullshit, that is.
so your comment on it?
- I don't think you're telling the truth.
- No, I'm just asking you some questions.
- I thought you were here to help me?
- I'm trying my best to.
you have no reasons to understand
why your 2 friends would
say you were linked to Al-Qaeda?
you're telling me right there.
How can you imagine that we accused you...
u think of a reason why they would say that about you.
That's the thing, I don't even think they
have talked and said that about me.
On your knees... Move it!
How's it going?
You okay?
- My name's Ruhel.
- Ruhel?
Do you speak Urdu?
- Me? No.
- No talking!
Are you all right?
- How long have you been here?
- hey, Cut that out. No talking.
I thought I was in a zoo.
I mean, that's what it reminded me of, was
a proper zoo.
What the hell are you doing?
Hey.
What are you doing?
You're praying like a Muslim?
What the hell are you doing?
I thought you were a Brit.
What about your Queen?
in Guantanamo Bay...
being question in these wooden huts by CIA,
...FBI and military interrogators.
I guess you wanna be in these f***ing
things forever.
That's what you wanna be? Do you wanna
be in here for f***ing ever?
Don't get f***ing smart with me, boy!
You're gonna tell me right now, you gonna tell me the truth
Huh?
You gonna tell me?
- Did you say you were a fighter?
- No.
Don't waste my time.
It either destroys you or it makes you
stronger. I think it made me stronger.
It destroyed me for a few weeks.
After that I was all right.
Dr Dre, Eminem, Tupac.

Do you know them?
- Say, rude boy...
- Say, rude boy...
-...better watch your back.
-...better watch your back.
-The man them are back.
-The man them are back.
-...with the wicked chat.
-...with the wicked chat.
Don't watch how the lyrics attack.
No.
Still awake?
Why don't you give me one of these raps I
- What do you wanna hear me rap about?
- I don't care, man. Anything.
All right, listen, yeah.
Ah, listen up, my name's Shafiq Rasul and
I'm from Tipton.
I tell 'em I ain't Taliban, but they don't
wanna listen.
You won't believe I just came out here for
my mate's wedding, do ya?
I never thought my arse would be
heading for Cuba.
And in between, I've been through mad
different sh*t you couldn't handle
...but the worst is having them shackles
slicing up your ankles.
And, yo, between me and you, these guards
are retards.
See him on his knees, they think he's
praying to the Queen...
All right, all right, that's enough.
Thanks, anyways. Get some sleep.
Hey, sit down.
- No walking around.
- How come?
No exercising. You know the rules.
In Camp X-Ray, we used to walk five
minutes every week.
They used to take us out for five minutes.
Move it! Come on!
You, let's go.
Back of the cell, hands on your head.
Come on.
Come on, move it, move it.
We found a file in a cave in Afghanistan,
says you're linked to Al Queda.
That's bullshit.
- We found your brother's file as well.
- That is bullshit.
And we also found your passport.
- No, you didn't. It's in my uncle's house.
- No, we found your passport there.
You know you're quite famous?
I put your name into the Internet...
...I got thirteen thousands hits.
Very unlikely... he was guilty of fighting in
Afghanistan.
"Keener on fashion than religion."
What's wrong?
My nephew's died.
You mean, this is the first you've heard?
I'm not answering any more
questions to you.
What was his name?
Hey... keep the blanket off.
I need to see your hands.
B*tch!
Hey, b*tch.
Hey, sit down! Shut the f*** up!
- Hey, b*tch.
- Stupid motherf***er!
Sit the f*** down! Shut the f*** up!
I'll shove this up your ass!

- Come here, b*tch!
- Sit the f*** down!
He's crazy, man, just leave him.
- Sit the f*** down!
- You shut up.
- You're f***ing mother's a b*tch.
He was mentally disturbed before he even
came to Cuba.
And he used to shout at everyone all the
time.
You've seen nothing yet, motherf***er.
- Beat the sh*t out of him!
- Hold him down, hold him down!
He's mad okay, so just leave him!
Sit the f*** down, you'll be next,
motherf***er!
F***ing leave him!
- Get him out!
- You're all f***ing crazy monkeys...
- Get him the f*** out of here!
- Throw that sh*t on me, you're next!
Get this sh*t outta here!
That's only a taste, motherf***er
I've been told we haven't found
your file in Afghanistan...
...it was someone else's.
So, what were you doing in Afghanistan?
Hey, you. Wake up.
There were rats, mice, there was snakes,
you know scorpions...
Man, don't move.
Wake up. Don't move,
Don't move, I'm coming in.
- Don't move, I'm coming in. - F***.
Don't move.
F***ing hell!
It's dead, it's dead.
- It's a big bastard, man. - Yes, it is.
- F***ing hell!
- Okay. Go back to sleep, it's all good now.
- Yeah, well, thanks a lot, man.
- Yeah, all right. No problem.
All right, everybody,
show's over, get back to sleep.
Asif and Shafiq were kept in Camp X-Ray for three months.
No talking
The US Government announce today that
prisoners...
...are being transferred to a new
purpose built facility...
...in Guantanamo Bay, named Camp Delta.
Put him in cell 11.
Were you a member of Al Queda?
No.
How long were you in Afghanistan?
You know I can speak English, yeah?
- I'm British.
- You speak English, you don't need a translator?
Are you a good Muslim?
I try to be.
Sit down, shut up.
We were in Delta for about a month and
then Ruhel arrived.
- Ruhel!
- Oh No, Oh No!

Keep it down, keep it down.
Oh, no, like toothbrush. f***ing hell.
We were in Camp Delta for about a year
an nothing happened.
Just the same questions over an over
again, and then it all changed.
