The first-ever photo of a prisoner at a CIA black site has been released in an unclassified U.S. military court filing.

A photo of Ammar al-Baluchi, one of several men at Guantánamo Bay who the U.S. government has accused of orchestrating the 9/11 terror attacks, has been released in a U.S. military court filing.

According to The Guardian, Baluchi was arrested in Karachi, Pakistan, in 2003 and was secretly taken to five CIA black sites between 2003 and 2006.

Since being shuffled to several black sites, Baluchi has been held at Guantánamo but has yet to be convicted of any crime.

The Guardian obtained the photo of the “war on terror” detainee from Baluchi’s attorneys hours before the military court filing was released.
