On January 15, 2010, the Department of Defense complied with a court order and published a list of Detainees held in the Bagram Theater Internment Facility that included the name Hajji Raiz.[1][2][3]
There were 645 names on the list, which was dated September 22, 2009, and was heavily redacted.[1][2]
According to historian Andy Worthington, author of the The Guantanamo Files, he was called “a key terrorist leader”.[3] He was reported to have been captured with bomb-making material, and have been a "major improvised explosive device facilitator".
He was reported to have been captured in July 2007 in Bati Kot, Nangarhar, Afghanistan.[4]
