Khalid Rashid
Khalid Mehmood Rashid is a Pakistani citizen who was arrested on 31 October 2005, in South Africa.[1] It has been alleged that he was subjected to extraordinary rendition out of South Africa.
The South African government stated that Rashid had been deported to Pakistan, and that the Pakistani government had confirmed his arrival there. Rashid's lawyer said that Rashid had been a member of the
Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.[4] In 2007, the human rights group Amnesty International said that Rashid was in secret detention in Pakistan.[5]
