About this episode

Kidnapped, hooded and stripped, serving years in prison without charge or trial.

The trials of Moazzam Begg are daunting and horrific to say the least, serving time in the infamous Bagram Prison and Guantanamo Bay. 

Although Begg has been declared an innocent man, the memories and his pursuit for justice remain. 

Join us as he walks us through his harrowing journey.

A word of caution, the themes discussed can be confronting and traumatic for some.
