Noor Uthman Mohamed

Nationality: Sudanese

Noor Uthman Mohammed, a Sudanese national, is accused of murder, attacking civilians and civilian objects, destruction of property, terrorism and providing material support for terrorism. Specifically, the United States alleges that Mohamed trained at a the Khaldan terrorism training camp in Afghanistan and that between 1996-2000 he instructed terrorist recruits on how to use Kalashnikov assault rifles, machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades, artillery as well as anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons. Among other allegations, the United States claims he delivered a fax machine to Osama bin Laden at the al Qaeda training camp, Jihad Wal.

He was arrested in March 2002 when US and Pakistani forces raided an alleged al Qaeda safe house in Faisalabad, Pakistan. He was held at Guantanamo for more than five years before charges were sworn against him in May 2008. The Convening Authority of the military commissions must approve the charges before Mohamed is formally charged.
