Duo 'high value' Gitmo prisoners


KUALA LUMPUR: They have the distinction of being the only Malaysians detained in the Guantanamo Bay detention centre for the last eight years. That’s not all – the two are also among the most feared detainees at the facility.

Mohamad Nazir Lep, who went by the aliases Bashir Lap and Lilie, and Mohd Farik Amin, also known as Yazid Zubair, are classified as “highly dangerous” terrorists and are among 14 “high value detainees” at the centre.
