Shaker Aamer is the last remaining British resident in the US prison. He has never been charged or tried, and has long been cleared for release from the prison.
Shaker's wife and four children are British and he has never met his youngest son.
Shaker was detained in November 2001. He was then sold for a bounty to US forces, tortured in Bagram Air Force Base and Kandahar (with British agents as witnesses), before being transferred to Guantánamo Bay in February 2002. He has been held and abused there ever since.
There are grave fears for Shaker's health as he is suffering from a list of ailments, including arthritis and serious asthma problems. Recently declassified documents describe in Shaker's own words how he has been 'ERF'd' -- subjected to regular, brutal beatings by the Emergency Reaction Force -- throughout his lengthy imprisonment in Guantánamo Bay. Shaker has said: "The ERF team grab me harshly, bend my arms and my head and slam me to the floor. They shackle me and put me in the chair."
