The name Sulaiman Shah is not listed on the official list of all Guantanamo captives that the Department of Defense released on May 15, 2006.[1]
Sulaiman Shah, and the other released captives, were given a one set of western clothes, including running shoes, and a knapsack to hold their medical records..[2] Most of the men needed to call on charity in order to travel home.
Sulaiman Shah, who described himself as a "businessman", said he was captured for no reason. He said he was generally treated well, but added: "I was in such a small [cell] and couldn't go outside for many days, My toilet was next to my bed, and it was a very bad way to live."
