photo(AP) - Benemar Benatta, 32, poses for a photograph after he was detained for nearly five years by the FBI and immigration, Monday, July. 31, 2006, in Toronto. Benatta was taken in United States custody on Sept. 12, 2001, a day after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Of the estimated 1,200 mostly Arab and Muslim men detained nationwide as potential suspects or witnesses in the Sept. 11 investigation, Benatta would earn a dubious distinction: Human rights groups say the former Algerian air force lieutenant was locked up the longest.
