Guantanamo Inmate Wrongfully Accused?

Afghan women walk with their water jars and containers on their heads in Gardez, Paktia Province, Afghanistan on Friday, March 30, 2007. In Afghanistan, a land-locked country with decades of war and armed conflict, access to an improved water source is among the lowest in the world. According to a National Risk and Vulnerability Survey, only 42% of rural dwellers had access to an improved water source as of 2010. About three quarters of Afghans live in rural areas. In urban areas, an estimated 78% had access to an improved water source. Access to an improved water source does not mean that the water is safe to drink.
