Good luck mate:

"ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - A Pakistani man who was released after 10 months at the U.S. detention center on Guantanamo Bay, Cuba is demanding $10.4 million for suffering he claims he endured at the hands of his American guards.

Mohammed Sanghir said he was caged in a tiny cell, kept in solitary confinement for days, and unwillingly given alcohol-laced drinks during his 10 months at the prison. He was freed last November, the first Pakistani released from the prison that now holds about 600 inmates.

``They said, 'You are innocent,''' Sanghir told The AP at the time at his home in northwest Pakistan. ``They didn't say sorry. They just said, 'You can go home.'''

...He wants $10 million for mental agony and another $400,000 for debts incurred by his family while he was in jail and damage to his sawmill business, it said.

...Sanghir said after he was released that his U.S. captors promised him $2,000 in compensation when he got off the plane in Pakistan - but that he received only $100."
