Ismatullah is a citizen of Afghanistan.[1] According to Asia Times Ismatullah, a resident of Khost, "simply vanished" in the winter of 2009, after hanging out with some friends at the bazaar. Months after his disappearance his family received a letter, through the Red Cross. Ismatullah wrote that he had been apprehended on his way home from the bazaar. He was currently held in extrajudicial detention in the United States' Bagram Theater Internment Facility, and didn't know when he would be released.

"Then one day, long after the police and village elders had abandoned their search, a courier delivered a neat, handwritten note on Red Cross stationary to the family. In it, Ismatullah informed them that he was in Bagram, an American prison more than 320 kilometers away. United States forces had picked him up while he was on his way home from the bazaar, the terse letter stated, and he didn't know when he would be freed."
