Ruhal Ahmed was detained without trial by the US government in the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. He told us about the abuse and torture he experienced, and how he was eventually flown back to the UK in 2004 and released the next day without charges.

This is an episode of Extraordinary Lives, where we speak to people with a unique life story to tell. From a North Korea escapee to an undercover cop, a Cold War spy to a shipwreck survivor.

Hosted by LADbible's Ben-Powell Jones, this series is a window into remarkable experiences – with stories that paint a picture of extraordinary lives.

Thanks to Ruhal for taking part!
