EXHIBIT 1

Dear Lawyer Clive Greetings. I am Ahmed Mohammed Abdullah Al Hakimi, a Yemeni national with No. 30 detained by the US at Guantanamo without any charge. I would like to have a lawyer from your office to be able to consult with, regarding the US trials and "enemy combatant" and the CSRT, especially due to the US government insisting on a matter that all detainees have their own rights, in opposition to the trial and in regards to the status of detainees by the Review Court. I hope my letter reaches you as soon as possible and I am looking forward to receiving a reply from you as soon as possible. Thank you. Detainee No.30. "Note" This is the name I traveled with. My real name is Nadir Mohammed Abdullah bin Sa'adoun. A Yemeni national born in Saudi Arabia, Jeddah.
