The dark prison is the informal name used by some Guantanamo Bay detainees for a secret prison they claim they were detained in near Kabul, Afghanistan. According to an article distributed by Reuters, eight Guantanamo detainees have described the conditions they were held under in "the dark prison" or the prison of darkness.
Detainees claimed that they were detained, in complete darkness, for weeks on end. They described being deprived of food and water, and being fed filthy food and water when they were fed.
