Muhammed al-Zayla

Muhammed Yahia Mosin Al Zayla is a citizen of Saudi Arabia who was held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, in Cuba.^[1] Al Zayla's Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 55. The Department of Defense reports that Al Zayla was born on July 25, 1977, in Medina, Saudi Arabia.

Repatriation and Release

Al Zaylaei was repatriated to Saudi Arabia in early December 2006.^[2][3][4] His brother Mohsen said his family was committed to finding Muhammed a wife, because so many of his letters had contained the wish that he get married and return to a normal life. His brother said also that the USA had been transliterating their name incorrectly, as Al Zayla., not Al-Zaylaei.^[2]
