Case Title Center for Constitutional Rights v. Department of Justice et al
Case Number 1:2012cv00135
Date Filed 2012-01-09
Defendant Department of Justice and its Components Federal Bureau of Investigation and Executive Office of United States Attorneys
TERMINATED: 02/23/2012
Defendant Department of Defense and its Components Defense Intelligence Agency and United States Southern Command
TERMINATED: 03/13/2012
Appeal Second Circuit 13-3684
FOIA Project Annotation: A federal court in New York has ruled that the Defense Department and the FBI properly withheld all video and photographic images of Mohammed al-Qahtani, widely believed to be the intended 20th hijacker on 9/11, who was captured by Pakistani forces in December 2001 and has been incarcerated at the U.S. facility at Guantanamo Bay ever since, under Exemption 1 (national security). The FOIA suit was filed by the Center for Constitutional Rights, which, along with others, represents al-Qahtani in a habeas corpus action in district court in Washington. In that role, CCR was privy to non-public information and filed the FOIA suit to force the government to make images of al-Qahtani public. Although the New York Times had published a photo of al-Qahtani, no official government disclosure has ever been made of his image. The Defense Department's affidavits argued that disclosure of al-Qahtani's image would allow terrorists to use and manipulate the image for propaganda purposes, would discourage any level of cooperation on the part of detainees, and could be used as a method of communication between terrorists. The court agreed, noting that "we find it both logical and plausible that extremists would utilize images of al-Qahtani to incite anti-American sentiment, to raise funds, and/or to recruit other loyalists. . ." and to "compromise the Government's cooperative relationships with other Guantanamo detainees." CCR argued this was unlikely given the large amount of information that was already public about al-Qahtani. But the court indicated that "the Government's release of written information concerning al-Qahtani does not diminish its explanations for withholding images of al-Qahtani. To the contrary, the written record of torture may make it all the more likely that enemy forces would use al-Qahtani's image against the United States' interests." In its response to CCR, the CIA had invoked a Glomar response neither confirming nor denying the existence of records. CCR argued again that the CIA's involvement with al-Qahtani's detention was public. But the court observed that "the referenced statements cannot satisfy the 'strict test' for official disclosure because they were not made by the CIA itself."
