1. (U) This is an action message. Please see para 2.
2. (C) In response to reftel request, Department provides the
following information that can be passed on to Tajik former
Guantanamo detainees Shafi Rakhimovich Salikhov, aka, Maroof
Saleemovich Salehove (ISN-208),and Mehrabon Faizulovich Odinaev
(ISN-077). On the request for medical records, DOD provides to the
receiving government a copy of the detainee's medical records and
sufficient medication (if required) to treat any illness present at
the time of transfer. DOD does not provide each detainee with a copy
of these medical records. Salikhov should approach the Tajik
government with his request for his records. (Note: Medical files
on Guantanamo detainees are not available in electronic format. As a
matter of standard practice, DOD does not provide each detainee with
a separate copy of their medical files. DOD does not consider there
to be any unique circumstances in these cases to consider
establishing a new precedent). End Note).
3.(C) Regarding Salikhov and Odinaev's request for compensation, as a
matter of standard practice, the USG does not pay compensation to
detainees.
