Guantanamo Bay is now the most expensive prison in the world. It was established nearly 18 years ago to detain suspected terrorists in Cuba, Guantanamo Bay.
The U.S. government has spent USD$161.5 million to house one Sheikh Mohammed, a suspected mastermind of the 9/11 terror attack in the United States.
The U.S. is estimated to be spending between $9.5 – $13 million per year on each prisoner at Guantanamo Bay. Currently, there are 40 inmates.
Mohamed has spent 17 years at Guantanamo Bay hence a total of USD $161.5 million of US taxpayers’ money has been spent on him.
In total the prison has cost taxpayers $6 billion since it was established by the Bush Administration.
