One of the ten captives to originally face charges before a military commission
Status
Guilty plea on July 7, 2010, repatriated to Sudan in 2012, rejoined al-Qaeda in 2014
Ibrahim Ahmed Mahmoud al Qosi (Arabic: إبراهيم أحمد محمود القوصي) (born July 1960) is a Sudanese militant and paymaster for al-Qaeda.[3] Qosi was held from January 2002 in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba.[4] His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number is 54.
Ibrahim Ahmed Mahmoud al Qosi was held at Guantanamo for approximately ten years and six months; he was charged with low-level support of al-Qaeda.[5] After pleading guilty in a plea bargain in 2010, in the first trial under the military commissions,[6] and serving a short sentence, Qosi was transferred to Sudan by the Obama administration in July 2012. He was to be held in custody and participate in Sudan's re-integration program for former detainees before being allowed to return to his hometown.
Some years after his release, Al Qosi moved to Yemen and joined Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), appearing in video releases by the group and reportedly taking a leadership role in it.[7][8]
In November 2019, the Rewards for Justice Program offered $4 million for information leading to the identification or location of Al Qosi.[9]
