A comment was inappropriately placed in the article, affer the allegation that Lahmar tried to rob a US citizen, that stated:

"That is not true, that was a cover story, in reality he tried to assassinate the U.S. Citizen, just ask me, there is another witness. The CIA and other Justice Department Officials dropped the ball and obviously lost my report, I turned it in at the Embassy in Sarajevo, I let the JCO team in Zenica know all about it, they were from 10th SFG, they dropped the ball also. I let the MLO at the Embassy know, he dropped the ball also. Who are these idiots?. After I learned this guy was in Guantanamo, I used my old contacts to get in touch with CIA,FBI and they never returned my calls. Even as I post this, they will do nothing as I have already left more phone messages for them. The is no intelligence there, just air breathers."

The comment could be a troll. Or it could be a comment from someone actually involved in an incident. What the anonymous IP needs to understand is that, even if they were an eyewitness to events we cover, unless they were interviewed by an WP:RS, or published an account of the incident, in a newspaper, journal -- but not a personal blog, we can't use their account in article space.

If they were an eyewitness to the event, they may be information they could provide on the talk page that could be useful here.

FWIW, there is another Guantanamo captive, who lived in Bosnia, who was alleged to have played a role in the death of a US citizen because he had in his possession a watch that had belonged to that US citizen. The US citizen was an employee of the United Nations. The UN and Interpol concluded he was not the target of a terrorist attack, but a tragic, criminal, but non-terrorist mugging.
