1. (C) Poloffs met September 11 with MFA Bilateral Affairs
and Counterterrorism Officer Karim Halim to notify the GOM of
the start of the second round of Administrative Review Board
(ARB) proceedings (reftel),which will include consideration
of the cases of Moroccan nationals Ahmad Abdullah Al-Wazan
(ISN: 197) and Abdulatif Nasser (ISN: 244). Poloff presented
Halim with a diplomatic note and attached points and detainee
data, drawn from reftel
2. (C) Noting his familiarity with the ARB process, Halim
explained that it is unlikely that the GOM will have any new
information to add regarding the two Moroccan nationals
beyond the data supplied to the embassy in 2005 (refs B and
C).
3. (C) Regarding Ahmad Abdullah Al-Wazan (ISN: 197),Halim
offered that the subject's actual name is Younis Chekkouri.
Halim suggested that the detainee be referred to as Younis
Chekkouri to avoid confusion, as Chekkouri was the name used
during last year's ARB (ref B).
3. (C) In closing, Halim pledged to forward the information
to relevant GOM officials and pass on any substantive
response.
