A detainee held at the United States military prison in Guantanamo Bay, identified as Zubaydah, has been paid significant compensation by the United Kingdom. This settlement resolves a legal challenge concerning the UK’s alleged complicity in his torture. Zubaydah has been held without trial since 2006 and is one of just 15 individuals who continue to be detained at the facility. The compensation amount has been described as substantial, aiming to bring closure to the accusations of UK involvement.
