Mohammed Jawad was one of the youngest prisoners ever held at the US prison facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
He has finally been returned to Afghanistan, seven years after he was arrested in Afghanistan on suspicion of throwing a grenade at US forces.
Now, he says he wants compensation from the US government for years of mistreatment and for spending most of his teens in a cell.
