A Guantanamo Bay prisoner who went through the brutal U.S. government interrogation program after the 9/11 attacks described it openly for the first time Thursday , saying he was left terrified and hallucinating from techniques the CIA long sought to keep secret . Majid Khan , a former resident of the Baltimore suburbs who became an al-Qaeda courier , told jurors considering his sentence for war crimes how he was subjected to days of painful abuse in the clandestine CIA facilities known as `` black sites '' as interrogators pressed him for information . It was the first time any of the so-called high value detainees held at the U.S. base in Cuba have been able to testify about what the U.S has euphemistically called `` enhanced interrogation '' but has been widely condemned as torture . `` I thought I was going to die , '' he said . Khan spoke of being suspended naked from a ceiling beam for long periods , doused repeatedly with ice water to keep him awake for days . He described having his head held under water to the point of near drowning , only to have water poured into his nose and mouth when the interrogators let him up . He was beaten , given forced enemas , sexually assaulted and starved in overseas prisons whose locations were not disclosed . `` I would beg them to stop and swear to them that I did n't know anything , '' he said . `` If I had intelligence to give I would have given it already but I did n't have anything to give . '' Khan , reading from a 39-page statement , spoke on the first day in what is expected to be a two-day sentencing hearing at the U.S. base in Cuba . A panel of military officers selected by a Pentagon legal official known as a convening authority can sentence Khan to between 25 and 40 years in prison , but he will serve far less because of his extensive cooperation with U.S. authorities . Under a plea deal , which the jurors were not told about , Khan 's sentence by the jury will be reduced to no more than 11 years by the convening authority , and he will get credit for his time in custody since his February 2012 guilty plea . That means he should be released early next year , resettled in a third , as yet unknown country because he ca n't return to Pakistan , where he has citizenship . Some of Khan 's treatment is detailed in a Senate Intelligence Committee report , released in 2014 , that accused the CIA of inflicting pain and suffering on al-Qaeda prisoners far beyond its legal boundaries and deceiving the nation with narratives of useful interrogations unsubstantiated by its own records . Khan agreed with that assessment . `` The more I cooperated and told them , the more I was tortured , '' he said . He spent about three years in CIA black sites before he was taken to Guantanamo in September 2006 . He said he never saw the light of day in the black sites and had no contact with anyone other than guards and interrogators from his capture until his sixth year at the detention center on the base in Cuba . Khan , 41 , has admitted to being a courier for al-Qaeda and taking part in the planning of several plots there were never carried out . He pleaded guilty in February 2012 to charges that include conspiracy , murder and providing material support to terrorism in a deal that capped his sentence in exchange for cooperating with authorities in other investigations , including the case against the five men held at Guantanamo who are charged with planning and providing logistical support for the Sept. 11 attack . A citizen of Pakistan who was born in Saudi Arabia , Khan came to the U.S. with his family in the 1990s and they were granted asylum . He graduated from high school in the Baltimore suburbs and held a technology job in the D.C. area at an office where he could see the smoke billowing from the Pentagon on Sept. 11 , 2001 . He says he turned to radical ideology following the death earlier that year of his mother , whom he described as the most important person in his life . Khan apologized for his actions and said he takes full responsibility . He said he now just wants to reunite with his wife and the daughter who was born while he was in captivity . He said he has forgiven his captors and his torturers . `` I have also tried to make up for the bad things I have done , '' he said . `` That 's why I pleaded guilty and cooperated with the USA government . '' Khan is the first of the high-value detainees , those who went through the interrogation program , to be convicted and sentenced at the military tribunals held on the base . The five men charged in the Sept. 11 attacks include Khalid Shaikh Mohammad , who has portrayed himself as the architect of the plot . That case remains in the pretrial stage and a judge has said it will start no sooner than next year . The U.S. holds 39 men at the detention center on Naval Station Guantanamo Bay . Guantanamo Bay prisoner describes abuse at CIA `` black sites '' in first such depiction in public by anyone subjected to it A Guantanamo Bay prisoner who went through the brutal U.S. government interrogation program after the 9/11 attacks described it openly for the first time Thursday , saying he was left terrified and hallucinating from techniques the CIA long sought to keep secret .

Justin Trudeau near tears hearing stories of Ukrainian refugees in Poland As Kate Kliuchnyk and her mother , Yuliia , pondered the next chapter of their lives in the crisp sunshine outside Warsaw 's Central Station on Thursday morning , a brief smile flashed across their faces . `` We really hope that everything will be good , that we will come home , '' said Kate , 19 , who fled her home in Kharkiv , Ukraine 's second largest city , with two younger sisters , her mother and Marley , their grey and white husky . Speaking in lightly accented English , she said it was like being on a `` mini trip . Maybe it 's a good opportunity to see Europe , to see other countries . '' Her mother said it was a good idea to stay positive . `` In other way , we 'll be very sad . And that wo n't change nothing . '' As the women embarked on a new path in a new land -- without Kate 's father , who stayed behind -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited Poland 's leaders and also managed to cross paths with U.S . Vice-President Kamala Harris . Polish President Andrzej Duda told Trudeau that 100,000 people are fleeing Ukraine into Poland every day , swelling his population by 1.5 million refugees . Many are being housed by local Polish residents , while 500,000 Ukrainian refugees have fled to other nations in Europe as well . Duda and Trudeau lambasted Russian President Vladimir Putin for an invasion that has unleashed the worst carnage on Europe since the Second World War , killing at least 500 civilians if not more , according to United Nations estimates . On Wednesday , an airstrike on a maternity hospital in the port city of Mariupol injured pregnant women and left children buried in the rubble . Duda said Poland will help collect evidence of war crimes so Putin and other Russians can face a legal reckoning before the International Criminal Court . `` This is genocide , '' he said in Polish . `` If someone bombs maternity hospitals full of pregnant women , if someone shells residential areas where there are no military facilities , these are war crimes and this is genocide . '' Trudeau condemned the invasion and was firm in his belief that Putin made a grave mistake when he invaded Ukraine . `` He 's going to lose this war because the ferocity and strength and resolve of the Ukrainian people defending their territory is inspiring us all . '' It would appear that Yuliia Kliuchnyk 's husband may be one of them . `` Men are not allowed to leave the country at the moment , '' she said . Kate said she talks by phone with her father every day . Duda said Canada was the only country that offered help to Poland to manage a refugee crisis before Russia launched its `` barbaric , unprovoked '' invasion of Ukraine . He described speaking on the phone with Trudeau on Feb. 13 , when he said the prime minister told him if Russia did invade , Canada would support Poland if needed . As dusk fell on the Polish capital , Trudeau came face to face with the crisis when he spent about half an hour with more than a dozen refugees in a crammed room in a hostel in downtown Warsaw . It was filled with about 15 refugees from five families -- all women with the exception of one grey-haired man . He reached out to clutch a blond toddler after he wandered in front of Trudeau and his entourage of ministers . The officials sat against one wall facing the masked group of refugees , a toy orange cement mixer at their feet . `` I just want to tell you that we are watching what 's happening in Ukraine every single day from around the world , '' Trudeau said . `` And we are all standing with you and we all want this to be over as ( soon ) as possible . And to get your country back and to support your brave husbands and brothers and friends who are staying back to make sure that Vladimir Putin does n't win . But you need to know that the West will be there for you as well . '' With Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland serving as his translator , Trudeau listened as some of the refugees relayed their experiences . After listening to one of the women speak , Trudeau was close to tears . Canadians may soon get to hear directly from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky , who has agreed to address Parliament next Tuesday at 11:15 a.m. eastern time . `` The people of Ukraine have shown tremendous courage in defending their country against the unjustifiable military invasion by Russia 's Vladimir Putin , '' government House leader Mark Holland wrote to House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota on Thursday as he sought his approval to allow the address to go ahead while the House and Senate are on a two-week break . `` This would be an opportunity for Canadians to hear directly from President Zelenskyy about the urgent and dire situation facing the people of Ukraine . '' Trudeau , Rota , Senate Speaker George Furey , interim Conservative leader Candice Bergen , Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet , NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and a member of the Green Party would also speak . In Berlin on Wednesday , Freeland said Canada began planning its response to a European refugee crisis late last year , as Putin began deploying more than 100,000 Russian soldiers and military equipment to Ukraine 's borders . `` We called it the 'God forbid ' scenario , '' Freeland said . Trudeau also met for an hour on Thursday evening with the American vice-president , who was also in Warsaw , for a discussion about how the two North American neighbours could help their European allies deal with their security and humanitarian needs . `` We stand in solidarity in terms of our outrage , '' Harris told Trudeau before the meeting . Trudeau in turn praised her and the Biden administration for leading `` like-minded countries to prepare for this possibility of the unthinkable , of Russia invading Ukraine . '' The United States also raised fears this week that Putin will unleash chemical weapons in the war , which Trudeau and Duda said would be met with the harshest of consequences . `` Putin needs to know that the consequences for his actions already will be severe , and further escalations by him , further targeting of civilians , further use of problematic ways to kill civilians , is going to be met with the severest of responses both globally and individually on him , '' Trudeau said . Trudeau said Canada is going to triple the matching fund for Ukrainian relief donations made to the Canadian Red Cross , from $ 10 million to $ 30 million . Canada is expediting refugee applications filed before the war began and prioritizing Ukrainians applying to come to Canada through other streams . It is also developing an emergency travel stream for Ukrainians that eliminates many of the normal visa requirements and , if they pass a security check , allows people to work or attend school in Canada for at least two years . Immigration Minister Sean Fraser 's office said Thursday the government is on track to launch the new stream March 17 . There is no firm date for when a new reunification program for Ukrainians with family in Canada who wish to come and remain here permanently will get off the ground . Trudeau announced $ 117 million Thursday to help with those efforts . Trudeau would not say whether Canada would consider getting rid of the visa altogether during a news conference with Duda on Thursday . `` We will continue to step up and do more on bringing in refugees to Canada as quickly as possible . Our hearts break for the terrible scenes that we 've seen , people fleeing for their lives , leaving behind them all their worldly possessions , looking to be safe . '' Kate Kliuchnyk said the Ukrainian people need the support of the world . `` I really hope that the war will end and that our country will be supported by other countries . It really matters now , '' she said . `` We heard about Canada , but it 's far away from our home . So we came to Poland , 'cause it 's near our country . '' This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 10 , 2022 . -- With files from Laura Osman in Ottawa .

Advertisement FOLLOW ON A nature conservancy organization is expressing concerns about a proposed gold mining operation near what it calls a `` biodiversity hot spot '' in Nova Scotia 's Guysborough County . A section of the St. Mary 's River is seen in an undated handout . ( THE CANADIAN PRESS/HO-Nova Scotia Nature Trust , Scott Leslie ) HALIFAX -- A proposed gold mine in Nova Scotia 's Guysborough County is being questioned by a conservancy organization concerned about the operation 's proximity to a `` biodiversity hot spot '' . Bonnie Sutherland , executive director of the Nova Scotia Nature Trust , said Thursday the open-pit mine to be operated by Atlantic Gold would be next to unique and ecologically sensitive lands along the St. Mary 's River . Sutherland said the area contains some of the last old-growth and Acadian flood plain forests in the province . `` It 's a very unique habitat . It supports a number of species that are at risk ... endangered turtles and birds , and there are Atlantic salmon in that river , '' Sutherland said . Part of the proposal by Atlantic Gold would see a nearby highway re-routed near a 93-hectare property recently donated to the trust by the family of Paul Sobey , the retired former president and CEO of Empire Co. Ltd. That land is one of four newly protected areas along the river . `` We 've been put in the position here of saying 'Wait a minute , let 's find another solution here that does n't involve protected wilderness ' , '' Sutherland said . She said while the trust is n't opposing the mine project , it is worried about the impact of related infrastructure . `` We 're not speaking out against the mine or anything that extreme , it 's more there 's an issue here , '' she said . `` The broader question of whether the mine is the right thing for that community , that 's really way beyond the mandate and expertise of the nature trust . '' Atlantic Gold wants to dig the mine in an area north of the community of Sherbrooke , N.S . The company drew criticism when an environmental activist was arrested and forcibly removed as a public meeting was conducted in Sherbrooke last week . The arrest of John Perkins , a member of Sustainable Northern Nova Scotia , was captured on video and circulated widely on social media . He was later released without charges . Derek Mombourquette , the provincial minister of energy and mines , said he has n't seen the video , but if Perkins has a complaint he can approach the province 's Serious Incident Response Team -- which has a mandate to review `` matters of significant public interest that arise from the actions of any police officer in Nova Scotia . '' Meanwhile , he said , the company is expected to continue consulting with the public as it proceeds with its application to develop the mine . In an email , Dustin O'Leary , a spokesman for Atlantic Gold , said the company recognizes the St. Mary 's River watershed is an ecologically significant area , adding that its protection is `` top-of-mind . '' O'Leary said the company has retained scientists and engineers to conduct studies in and around the proposed Cochrane Hill mine site . `` These studies will predict potential environmental effects and allow us to design and apply the best available engineering and environmental practices that will reduce any effects to insignificant levels , '' he said . Once the studies are concluded , O'Leary said they will support the development of an environmental impact statement being prepared for submission to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency and the Nova Scotia Environment Department later this year . `` We believe that the Cochrane Hill Gold Mine project can be designed and operated in a way that ensures the continued health and protection of the St. Mary 's River and its watershed , '' O'Leary said . The Nova Scotia Nature Trust works with communities , other conservation organizations and government to protect wilderness in the province . The non-profit , charitable organization says it currently protects more than 5,666 hectares across Nova Scotia . The Progressive Conservative and NDP leaders weighed in on Perkins ' ejection from the company 's public meeting , saying it raised concerns for them . Tim Houston , the Tory leader , called the video of Perkins ' ejection `` pretty disturbing . '' `` People need to be able to feel they had their say , and in this case , there 's a lot of people that feel that somebody did n't get to have their say because the police were called , '' Houston said . `` That 's not a good message to be sending . '' NDP Leader Gary Burrill also saw the video and said it does n't reflect well on the company 's level of consultation . `` Consultation should not be consulted in handcuffs , '' he said .

Bon-Ton closing is like a death in the family The end came quickly , like the death of a loved one suffering from a lengthy disease , the end still a shock to the system . It had been common knowledge that the Bon-Ton Stores Inc. — headquartered in York County and Milwaukee — was in a bad place , financially speaking . Profits dwindled and soon turned into losses . The chain closed stores and had filed for bankruptcy . There was the hope among those who worked and shopped at the venerable retailer that a white knight would appear and save the ailing patient . It did n't happen . On Tuesday , an auction in bankruptcy court attracted just two bidders , The Great American Group and Tiger Capitol Group , who purchased the chain for $ 775.5 million , only to announce that it would be liquidating the company , closing its stores and selling off its inventory . Related : Bon-Ton Stores going out of business after liquidators win bid at auction The stores are expected to close within the next three months , marking the end of Bon-Ton . `` It 's sad , '' said April Sheffer , who works at the chain 's store in the Queensgate Shopping Center and who also shops there . `` It 's like family here . It 's sad not knowing what will happen to everybody , and it 'll be sad not seeing them every day . '' Sheffer , 32 , of Dover , has worked at the store for three years . She saw the writing on the wall when the chain filed for bankruptcy in February . She began looking for another job . She was successful , and her last day is Sunday . She worries for her co-workers – in York County , 332 jobs are expected to disappear with the chain – and hopes they will be OK. '' We really thought something would come through , '' she said as she left the store Wednesday morning . `` It 's a shame . '' The Bon-Ton is among the country 's larger department store chains , with 256 stores in 23 states . But here , in York County , where the chain was born , it 's a part of the fabric of the community , an institution that , for generations , has always been there . Its one-time flagship store , housed in a stately building designed by famed local architect John Dempwolf , stood for years as a cornerstone of York 's downtown , a place where , it seemed , the entire city shopped . During Christmas season in years gone by , people would flock downtown just to see the window displays , or take their kids inside to sit on Santa 's lap . It was a place where people bought their Sunday best suits and dresses to attend church , or to be married in , or to be buried in . The first Bon-Ton store opened in York in 1854 , a one-room millinery and dry good store . It was then called S. Grumbacher & Son , the S. being Samuel and the son being his son , Max . In all , four generations of Grumbachers oversaw the growth of the store into a chain and then into one of the nation 's larger retailers . Locally , the Grumbacher family has been a pillar in the community , contributing to countless philanthropic causes . The gym at York College bears the family name , as does the information sciences and technology center on the campus of Penn State 's York Campus . More : The Grumbachers - who were they and why were they so influential ? More : Remember the Mirrored Ball at York 's Bon-Ton ? Know what became of it ? The company 's growth really began in the post-World War II years , when it expanded into neighboring communities and began acquiring other retailers . Eventually , the downtown York store closed , the retailer 's future seemingly secured in the malls and shopping centers dotting the countryside . Bon-Ton still serves as an anchor of the York Galleria mall . Even now , the Bon-Ton seems like a throwback to the department stores of old . The sales staff just did n't man the cash registers . They assisted customers and provided a kind of service that is oft-times lacking in large retail chains . Many of the people who work at Bon-Ton have worked there for years , making it a career . Related : The end of Bon-Ton ? Only bids for department store chain come from liquidators : Reports Recent years , though , have been unkind , with the expansion of online shopping cutting into its business and causing a large and swift decline in traffic in the malls frequently anchored by Bon-Ton stores . The chain reportedly has n't made a profit since 2010 . It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in February , still hoping to find investors or buyers that would step in and save the retailer . It proved difficult to find any investors interested in keeping the chain as a going concern , and in the end , the only bids for the company came from the two companies specializing in liquidating businesses .

's 10 biggest companies : Hershey 's , Bon-Ton , Dick 's do n't make the cut In a statement , the company 's president and CEO , Bill Tracy , was quoted as saying , `` While we are disappointed by this outcome and tried very hard to identify bidders interested in operating the business as a going concern , we are committed to working constructively with the winning bidder to ensure an orderly wind-down of operations that minimizes the impact of this development on our associates , customers , vendors and the communities we serve . `` We are incredibly grateful to all of our associates for their dedicated service to Bon-Ton and to our millions of loyal customers who we have had the pleasure to serve as their hometown store for more than 160 years . '' Donna Martin is among those loyal customers . She began shopping at the Bon-Ton when it was still downtown and she was working at the York Bank . `` It was convenient , '' Martin , now 68 and retired , said . She continued shopping at Bon-Ton , the store at Queensgate being her favored location , close to her Windsor Township home . She 's not much of an online shopper . She visited the Queensgate store on Wednesday . She knows some of the people who work at the store and came in to express her condolences . `` The people were always friendly , '' she said . `` I 'm going to miss them . '' She pondered the fate of the store . `` I guess it 's a sign of the times , '' she said . Also of interest :

Federal Grand Jury Indicts Separate Fraud Conspiracies Targeting Sam ’ s Clubs BIRMINGHAM – A federal grand jury on Wednesday indicted two Tampa men and a Georgia trio in similar fraud conspiracies targeting Sam ’ s Club membership stores , announced U.S. Attorney Jay E. Town and U.S. Secret Service Special Agent in Charge Michael Williams . Both cases involve counterfeit access devices – debit or credit cards – used at a wide range of Sam ’ s Club locations to purchase goods or pre-paid gift cards . The Georgia defendants are charged with using counterfeited cards at Sam ’ s Clubs trailing from Indiana to Alabama , with excursions to Las Vegas and Oklahoma . “ The defendants in both of these cases are facing federal charges because of the collaborative work of the Secret Service Financial Crimes Task Force , Regions Bank and Walmart Global Investigations , ” Town said . “ We appreciate their work and recognition of the fact that when businesses suffer financial loss from criminal activity , oftentimes the community will incur higher costs and fees , ” Town said . “ These indictments will serve as a strong deterrent to criminals who travel across state lines to commit financial crimes in the Northern District of Alabama , ” Williams said . A three-count federal indictment charges SWIFT OGDEN SPEER , 48 , and EMERALD SANDERS-JACKSON , 28 , both of Atlanta , and CHAKERA DENISE RICHARDSON , 27 , of Austell , Ga. , with conspiring between January and March in Jefferson County to traffic in counterfeit access devices by using them to obtain money , goods and services . The indictment also charges them with separate counts of using a counterfeit device and possessing device-making equipment on March 16 in Jefferson County .

Brad Bartelt is charged with five counts of aggravated assault , one count of making a terrorist threat and one count of terroristic threatening , The Jonesboro Sun ( http : //bit.ly/2bRLTep ) reports . A jury was selected Monday . Authorities say Bartelt drove onto the lawn of a university building at the Jonesboro campus . His brought with him a 12-gauge shotgun and tanks of gas and propane . `` For one hour he completely froze ASU and Jonesboro , '' chief deputy prosecutor Grant Deprow said in court . `` Students were hiding in closets , loud noises were making police think there was more than one shooter . He got a shotgun and a propane tank and drove not to the administration building , but to the student center . He intentionally made the world believe he was going to blow himself up with everyone else . '' Police say that after his arrest , he told officers that he 'd initially planned to shoot other people , but decided during the standoff to kill himself . No shots were fired . Defense attorney Chet Dunlap says Bartelt 's actions on Dec. 10 were a cry for help , not terroristic . Police said Bartelt said he was upset about an injury he received in 2012 while training to drive an semitrailer at Arkansas State 's campus in Newport , about 45 miles away . The trial will continue this week . ___ Information from : The Jonesboro Sun , http : //www.jonesborosun.com

FOLLOW ON Advertisement This combination of photos shows Regina Hall , from left , Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes , who are in final talks to host the 94th Academy Awards . ( AP Photo ) LOS ANGELES -- After three years without a host , the Oscars are reportedly making up for lost time with three hosts for this year 's awards : Amy Schumer , Regina Hall and Wanda Sykes are in final talks to host the 94th Academy Awards , the trade publication Variety reported Monday . Reports say that each actor will be responsible for one hour of the three-hour broadcast , airing live on ABC on March 27th . Neither the academy nor representatives for Schumer , Hall and Sykes immediately responded to request for comment by The Associated Press . The hosts will be confirmed Tuesday morning on `` Good Morning America . '' `` Girls Trip '' producer Will Packer is producing this year 's ceremony . Hall has been in several of Packer 's movies , including `` Think Like a Man '' and `` Little . '' The show is hoping to rebound from the dismal viewership of last year 's broadcast , which was both an all-time low and the norm for pandemic-era awards shows . In addition to bringing back starry hosts and bumping the best picture nominees to a set 10 , the Academy is also hoping to spike interest through social media voting for a `` fan favorite '' movie that will be announced during the show , as well as a chance to win a trip to Los Angeles for the ceremony .

This is a carousel . Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 101 There are some things you can expect to find at San Francisco International Airport , despite how odd they might seem : a therapy pig wearing a tutu , for example , or a ban on the sale of plastic water bottles ( but only the small ones ) . One thing SFO passengers could not anticipate , however , was witnessing famous actress Jennifer Garner practicing ballet in the middle of a moving walkway . On Thursday , Garner , who is best known for her roles in `` 13 Going on 30 , '' `` Dallas Buyer 's Club '' and the TV series `` Alias , '' posted a video on Instagram of herself doing just that , while confused airport-goers looked on . `` I ’ ve been working on my # Giselle . Is this right , Cindy ? '' she captioned the video , then went on to tag a bunch of ballerinas . In the post , Garner also sent `` healing love '' to ballerina Misty Copeland , who announced Thursday that she would no longer be able to dance the role of Giselle with the American Ballet Theater at the Kennedy Center due to an injury . According to Women 's Health , Garner follows ballet closely and partakes in ballet-inspired dance workouts herself . She 's been a longtime supporter of the American Ballet Theatre , even posting a video on Instagram back in December in which she dressed up as a nutcracker to promote the ABT cast 's upcoming shows .
