Guantanamos last UK inmate Shaker Aamer speaks from cell The last British resident being held in Guantanamo Bay has been broadcast speaking from his prison cell for the first time. Shaker Aamer, who has been in the military prison since 2002, spoke to US news channel CBS by shouting from his cell, asking reporters to tell the world the truth. His lawyer said he was being held even though he had been cleared for release. The UK Foreign Office said Mr Aamers case remained a high priority. As part of a recording made by the CBS 60 Minutes programme, Mr Aamer said: Tell the world the truth... please, we are tired. Either you leave us to die in peace - or either tell the world the truth. Open up the place. Let the world come and visit. Let the world hear whats happening. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-24998809
