The Special Rapporteur received information concerning Mr. Saifullah A. Paracha, aged 58, a Pakistani national who has been detained at Guantánamo Bay since September 2004. According to the allegations received, Mr. Paracha has not been allowed to speak to a chaplain since he arrived at Guantánamo Bay in September 2004, despite the fact that he has indicated that he would be willing to speak to a chaplain of any tradition. Response from the Government dated 12 July 2007 276. The Government indicated that the United States maintains its firm commitment to respect religious freedom and is dedicated as a policy matter to respecting the religious and cultural dignity of all of the detainees of Guantanamo Bay. 277. The United States does not provide chaplains to the detainees at Guantanamo Bay due to resource constraints, and in any case notes that is not legally obligated to do so. Nevertheless, the United States (US) has taken many steps to protect the rights of the detainees to freely practice their religion. These steps include issuing Korans to detainees in one of five languages commonly spoken at the camp. US military personnel responsible for providing security for the detainees under US control at Guantanamo Bay receive special training regarding handling religious articles associated with the Islamic faith in the appropriately respectful manner. The United States has carefully implemented a standard operating procedure at Guantanamo that makes every effort to provide detainees with religious articles associated with the Islamic faith, including prayer beads and prayers rugs, to accommodate prayers and religious periods as well as to provide them with culturally acceptable meals and practices. 278. Calls to prayer are conducted over loudspeakers at the appropriate times every day and there are arrows indicating the direction to Mecca throughout Guantanamo to assist detainees in knowing which direction to pray. Once the call to prayer is sounded, detainees receive 20 minutes of uninterrupted time to worship. Observations 279. The Special Rapporteur is grateful for the Government’s response. With regard to access to qualified representatives of a religion she would like to refer to the 1955 Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners, which were approved by ECOSOC resolutions 663 C
