Early life
Mohammed Nazir Bin Lep was born in 1976 in Johor, Malaysia. Bin Lep received a degree in architecture from Polytechnic University Malaysia. After completing his degree, Bin Lep completed compulsory military service in the Malaysian Army.[5]
Guantanamo detainment
Mohammed Nazir Bin Lep has been detained in Guantanamo Bay since 2006 when he was transferred into DoD custody. Throughout Bin Lap's internment, the Malaysian Government has sought to repatriate him in addition to another Malaysian national held in Guantanamo Bay.[7]
Guantanamo Review Task Force
On January 21, 2009, the day he was inaugurated, United States President Barack Obama issued three executive orders related to the detention of individuals in Guantanamo Bay detention camp.[8][9][10][11] That new review system was composed of officials from six departments, where the OARDEC reviews were conducted entirely by the Department of Defense. When it reported back, a year later, the Guantanamo Review Task Force classified some individuals as too dangerous to be transferred from Guantanamo, even though there was insufficient evidence to justify charging them. On April 9, 2013, that document was made public after a Freedom of Information Act request.[12] Bin Lep was one of the 71 individuals deemed unable to be charged due to insufficient evidence, but too dangerous to release. Obama said those deemed unable to be charged due to insufficient evidence but too dangerous to release would start to receive reviews from a Periodic Review Board.
Periodic Review Board
The first review wasn't convened until November 20, 2013.[13] As of 15 April 2016[update], 29 individuals had reviews, but Bin Lep wasn't one of them. Bin Lep was denied approval for transfer on September 15, 2016.[14]
Trial
In August 2021, Mohammed Nazir Bin Lep, Hambali, and Mohammed Farik Bin Amin were charged by the United States government with murder and terrorism for their involvement in the 2002 Bali bombings.[15] On January 26, 2024, a military jury at Guantánamo sentenced Bin Lep and Bin Amin to 23 years' confinement for their roles in the bombings. However, the sentence may be reduced to at most 6 years' confinement due to a secret deal the pair reached with a senior Pentagon official. They were granted the reduced sentence in exchange for agreeing to testify against Hambali. [16]

I have already discussed at length the profound injustice of holding Shawali Khan and Abdul Ghani, in articles here and here, and noted how their cases discredit America, as Khan, against whom no evidence of wrongdoing exists, nevertheless had his habeas corpus petition denied, and Ghani, a thoroughly insignificant scrap metal merchant, was put forward for a trial by military commission — a war crimes trial — under President Bush.
