How to identify an al-Qaida trained bomberIn a report out of Guantanamo Bay, a cheap Casio watch was used as a sign of a prisoner likely being an al-Qaida operative who was trained in bomb-making. It would also be used as a reason for further detention.
This was taken from the report:
"The Casio was known to be given to the students at al-Qaida bomb-making training courses in Afghanistan at which the students received instruction in the preparation of timing devices using the watch.
Approximately one-third of the JTF-GTMO detainees that were captured with these models of watches have known connections to explosives, either having attended explosives training, having association with a facility where IEDs were made or where explosives training was given, or having association with a person identified as an explosives expert."
