“Washington is breaking international law by holding detainees indefinitely at Guantanamo and must honour a pledge to shut the controversial jail, the UN’s human rights chief said. ‘The continuing indefinite incarceration of many of the detainees amounts to arbitrary detention and is in clear breach of international law. It severely undermines the United States’ stance that it is an upholder of human rights… When other countries breach these standards, the US — quite rightly — strongly criticises them for it.’ The jail, in a US Navy base in Cuba, was opened in 2002 to hold prisoners taken in the ‘War on Terror’ waged by George W. Bush after the 9/11 attacks.”
