REVEALED: After 9/11, CIA Operated Not One, But Two Torture Programs

It’s been twenty-three years since Gul Rahman died of hypothermia, beaten and left half-naked and short shackled to a bare prison floor at the CIA-run Salt Pit “black site” prison in Afghanistan. It is not known what the CIA did to his corpse. His body was never turned over to his family.

In November 2018, “Rahman’s family and the ACLU sued the CIA to demand that the government release records concerning the specific disposition and location of his body.” The lawsuit did manage to wrest some documents from the CIA, but still nothing was ever released on the disposition of Gul Rahman’s corpse.
