"Abdul Salam Zaeef" was the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan/Afghan ambassador to Pakistan before the War in Afghanistan (2001–present)/US invasion of Afghanistan.

He was detained in Pakistan in the fall of 2001 and held until 2005 in the Guantanamo Bay detainment camp. The United Nations removed Zaeef from its list of terrorists in July 2010.
