From the battlefields in Bosnia and Chechnya to death row in a US Supermax prison, Babar Ahmad has seen some interesting things in his life. Babar grew up in south London then went to Bosnia as an 18-year-old. He went as an aid worker but ended up joining the Bosnian Army to defend the Bosnian Muslims. Then 9/11 happened and the world changed. What Babar did in Bosnia was now seen as terrorism and the US government wanted him. In 2003 Metropolitan Police officers raided his south London home and over the next 40 minutes subjected him to a horrific ordeal of physical, verbal, religious and sexual abuse. Babar then spent the next 8 years in prison without charge fighting extradition to the US. In 2012 he was blindfolded, shackled and bundled onto a private jet to the US. After two years in isolation in a Supermax prison next to death row inmates and gang-members, Babar was offered a deal by US prosecutors. Plead guilty and you will be home within the year. Babar accepted the deal and when he appeared before the sentencing judge in a US court, she ruled that he was not a terrorist. 12 months later, in 2015, Babar was released from a US prison and returned to his home in London, where he now lives. He shares insights from war, prison and torture.
