...Close. He was actually in Guant?namo Bay, Cuba, as a guest of the U.S. military. How did Khan, a homeopathic doctor who (according to his family) had never picked up a gun, find himself 9,600 kilometers from home locked inside a razor-wired stockade?

...Sunday evening. The 27-year-old engineer had swerved his 100cc Honda Wave motorcycle to avoid a bicycle and crashed into a concrete lane divider near his home. His bleary-eyed brother stared blankly at the widening pool of blood on the sheet beneath Hieu's head as the doctor explained the family's options: hook him up to life support, or take him home to die. Either way, he would never wake...
