Mohammad Jawad, one of the youngest detainees to be held at the U.S.
detention facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, said after his
return home to Afghanistan he had been abused and humiliated during 6 years in custody. A teenager when he was held, he was accused of
war crimes for throwing a grenade that wounded two U.S. soldiers in
2002, but was ordered freed in July by a U.S. judge who threw out his
confession because it had been obtained through abuse.
