  • Resumen

  • My guest today is Mohamedou Ould Slahi, a man who was kidnapped by American special forces and taken to Guantanamo Bay - where they claimed he was the head recruiter of 9/11.


    Despite having no evidence, no charge put against him and even winning a habeus corpus case to be set free, Mohamedou spent 14 years and two months in the world's most extreme and secure prison. Mohamedou has been called the most tortured man in Guantanamo, subjected to beatings, sleep deprivation, sexual assault, a mock execution and even threats to imprison and rape his mother, all to force him to sign a false confession.


    Released from Guantanamo in 2016, and now the subject of the gripping new film The Mauritanian, Mohamedou is now a prisoner in his own country. Refused a passport and the ability to travel, he campaigns for human rights in the much bigger cell of Mauritania. I got to sit down with the embodiment of human resilience, and look into the eyes of a man who has endured so much torment, yet can still greet me with a smile.


    I hope you enjoy.
