Mindoo Phillip Park is a multipurpose stadium located in Marchand, Castries, Saint Lucia. It is a training and competition venue for cricket, football, rugby and track and field, among other sports. It was formerly a home venue for the Windward Islands cricket team.

The ground hosted two One Day Internationals, in 1978 and 1984. Both matches involved West Indies and Australia. On 12 April 1978, Australia beat West Indies by two wickets. On 19 April 1984, West Indies returned the favour, winning by seven wickets.

First-class cricket has not been played at Mindoo Phillip Park since 2001 due to the construction of Beausejour Stadium.
The venue had previously been known as Victoria Park, but in 1979 was renamed in honour of Francis Mindoo Phillip, widely acclaimed as the island's greatest cricketer.

Originally known as Maroons , it consists of rapper Lateef the Truthspeaker ( of Latyrx ) and producer Chief Xcel ( of Blackalicious ) .

In 2004 , the duo released their debut album , Maroons : Ambush .

Blackalicious, DJ Shadow, and Latyrx have cemented Quannum as a major force in the underground. Many of the label’s offerings have become certifiable hip-hop classics, all without help from mainstream media outlets. Bridging the gap between college-age kids looking for danceable, user-friendly music like Jurassic 5, and hard-core rap fans weaned on the likes of Dead Prez and the Coup, Quannum walks a razor thin line between commerciality and credibility. The latest tightrope, a collaboration between Blackalicious’ production guru Chief Xcel and Latryx mouth Lateef the Truth Speaker called Maroons: Ambush continues the trend to mostly satisfying, if somewhat predictable results.
The production work is aces; the Chief‘s deft turntable, editing and arrangement work is nicely augmented by the feisty funk of several session guns. Miles beyond most non-mainstream releases, Ambush nevertheless sounds too clean in spots – a sunny Californian studio gloss smothers the tracks in a sugar glaze that saps some of the power from Lateef’s politically-themed rhymes.
Lyrically, Lateef is in fine form, but his sing-song vocal workouts sometimes sound a bit goofy. He’s a profound verbal acrobat, however, dropping tight protest raps without resorting to unproductive anger and blasé generalizations. For every comment about governmental abuses of power, there’s an admonition to each of us to hold ourselves to higher standards.
The track “If” ruminates on the follies of human nature, particularly people’s susceptibility to greed. The cut’s relentless bounce is a study in elegant pugnacity – the perfect backdrop for Lateef’s observations on the politics of acquisition. What sets him apart from other socially conscious MCs is that he offers alternatives to ignorance and avarice, encouraging listeners to employ personal responsibility in direct challenge to our leaders’ deliberate unaccountability. Sadly, his message should be self-evident.
It’s hard to doubt the duo’s integrity, but the populist vibe sometimes gets a bit cloying. How many amber necklace wearing secondary students pay anything more than lip-service to progressive politics? Ambush will sound great in the SUV no matter what the content, and Maroons’ non-confrontational approach makes them less relevant than uncompromising attack dogs such as Immortal Technique. It’s all fine and good to “stay positive,” but if you’re on a mission to wake folks up, it takes more than cuddly grooves and good advice.
The romantically-themed “Beautiful You” temporarily eschews the social agenda. A paean to sharing one’s self-realizations (and perhaps a little weed) with your best bitty, the track’s klezmer-tinged string arrangements snake around the bottom-heavy beat like trails of purple smoke. Taken in context with the rest of the record, it’s a bit like holding hands during Poli-Sci class.
With more talent to spare than the majority of their closest competition, it’s disappointing that Maroons: Ambush don’t take it just a little further. Crafted to appeal to a wide range of hip-hop consumers, Ambush might leave more of an impression if it put a little more weight behind its well-mannered thump.

Gul Haider (or Gul Haidar) is a former mujahideen commander and official in the ministry of defense of Hamid Karzai's Afghan government.Detainees not given access to witnesses: But in one case, 3 quickly found, Boston Globe, June 18, 2006

Military career
Born in the Panjshir Valley of Afghanistan, Gul Haidar joined the forces of Ahmed Shah Massoud at the age of 17, when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan in 1979. While serving as one of Massoud's commanders, Gul Haidar lost a leg to a mine, and Massoud sent him to London to receive an artificial limb, after which he returned to Afghanistan to continue the war.

During the Sieges of Kabul Gul Haidar controlled Gardana Kar-e Sakhi and lead the fighting that initially took place near the custom posts on the road to Jalalabad. According to one witness he controlled 40 RPG-7 rocket launchers, 10 82-mm mortars, 10 82-mm artillery pieces and 40 PK machine guns. In February–March 1993 he was known to control the Tapi-e Salaam area of Kabul as well where his forces fired mortars at the men of Ali Akbar Qasemi who was in the university area. According to one source he was manning the artillery at T.V. Mountain in three month rotations along with General Baba Jalandar. After the fall of Kabul in 1996 he remained loyal to Massoud, and was instrumental in preventing the Taliban from taking the Panjshir valley.Davies, Will & Shariat, Abdullah(2004); Fighting Masoud's war; Lothian books , p.168

Post-Taliban
General Gul Haidar commanded up to 1000 Afghan troops fighting alongside the Americans in the battles of Shah-e-Kot in Eastern Afghanistan in March 2002. He was at the time the Ministry of Defense Commander for 4 southern provinces including Paktika, Paktya and Ghazni. Since then he has largely traded in his guns for business and has become quite successful. He currently owns a mansion in Shirpur, an area where lower class housing was demolished to make room for houses of government officials.

Relation with Abdullah Mujahid
Guantanamo detainee Abdullah Mujahid requested Haider as one of the witnesses who could refute the accusation that he was fired because he was suspected of collusion with anti-government forces.Guardian finds Afghan witnesses US couldn't, The Guardian, June 30, 2006Found: The 'unfindable' men , Mail and Guardian, July 1, 2006 Haider was one of the members of a commission who recommended a promotion for Mujahid.

Detainees not given access to witnesses : But in one case , 3 quickly found , Boston Globe , June 18 , 2006

GARDEZ, Afghanistan -- The US government routinely failed to give detainees at Guantanamo Bay access to witnesses who might have helped them prove their assertions of innocence, saying it could not locate the vast majority of the witnesses the terror suspects requested at special military hearings.
But within a three-day span, a Globe reporter was able to locate three of those witnesses in the case of one detainee. The Globe found two of them in Afghanistan, and located a third in Washington, D.C., where he is teaching at the National Defense University.
In 2004, after a Supreme Court ruling, the US military was forced to give hearings to more than 500 prisoners being held without charge at the US detention facility in Cuba. At the time, the military pledged to try to locate defense witnesses to give testimony for those hearings, but later routinely reported that they could not be found.
A Globe review of the transcripts of the hearings, which were released to the public in March, identified 34 detainees who convinced tribunal officials that their overseas witnesses would provide relevant testimony.
But in all 34 cases, detainees were told at their hearings that their witnesses could not be found. Nearly all of those 64 approved witnesses were deemed ``unavailable" because the governments of the country where the witnesses lived did not respond to a State Department request for help in locating them.
Military investigators and State Department officials did not even contact witnesses who were well known to US authorities.
In one case, the State Department said that it could not locate Ismail Khan , the well-known minister of energy in Afghan president Hamid Karzai's cabinet, who meets frequently with American diplomats.
In another case, tribunal officials said they could not contact a prisoner in US custody in Bagram, Afghanistan, because the US officials holding him failed to respond to their inquiries. The tribunal records also show that the time period allowed by the tribunals to find the witnesses was often brief. In some cases, tribunal officials declared witnesses unavailable after two weeks.
In the vast majority of cases, detainees had to rely on the jailhouse testimony of fellow prisoners at Guantanamo, whose credibility is deeply in question, or on letters from family members.
Defense lawyers say the absence of witnesses at the hearings made it harder for any innocent detainee to prove that he was the victim of a mistake. Out of nearly 380 detainees who participated in the process, only 38 managed to win their release.
The status of the Guantanamo detainees received new attention following the suicides of three prisoners June 10, after months of hunger strikes by scores of detainees to protest the US military's refusal to grant them hearings under usual criminal procedures. The Pentagon considers the detainees to be terrorists or Taliban fighters captured in Afghanistan and elsewhere after the Sept. 11 attacks.
The military did not initially intend to allow detainees to challenge their status through hearings or to be able to call witnesses. But in June 2004, the Supreme Court ruled that prisoners at Guantanamo had to be given a chance to prove their innocence, either in US federal court or in special military hearings.
To satisfy the court ruling -- and to keep the cases out of federal court -- the military quickly set up ``Combatant Status Review Tribunals" in which detainees could challenge their status as ``enemy combatants" and call witnesses who were ``reasonably available."
The tribunals, which began in the fall of 2004 and concluded in early 2005, represented the only opportunity for the vast majority of detainees to call witnesses to try to prove contentions of mistaken identity or misinformation. (Only 10 detainees have been granted formal trials, which provide a second opportunity for a defense.)
Detainees' lawyers were barred from participating in the hearings. But Gordon England, then the secretary of the Navy, who oversaw the creation of the tribunals, pledged to reporters at the time that the US government would make good-faith efforts to find the witnesses, and that he would ask US embassies to help locate witnesses overseas.
``We will ask them to, and I expect people will do their jobs," England said, explaining that witnesses would either testify in person or be asked to submit written statements.
The State Department's role was merely ``to pass information to host governments," according to department spokesman Tom Casey. ``The US government did not physically go out and try to locate these witnesses," said a State Department official who asked not to be identified because he was not authorized to speak to the press. ``We relied very heavily on the governments to run down these witnesses. Some governments were not as cooperative."
Another State Department official, who also asked not to be identified, said the US government would have paid for some witnesses to be transported to Cuba to testify, but that detainees failed to provide enough details to locate them.
The two State Department officials also said that some witnesses were found but that they opted to provide written statements instead of testifying in person. Yet, thousands of pages of transcript hearings reveal fewer than 10 such witnesses, most of them prisoners in US custody.
Pentagon spokesman Lieutenant Commander Chito Peppler said the Defense Department did not keep track of how many witnesses were located. He acknowledged that no overseas witness had ever been brought to testify on the base.
The detainee whose witnesses the Globe located is Abdullah Mujahid, a former Afghan provincial police commander arrested by US troops in July 2003. The US military maintains that Mujahid ``was fired from his appointed position due to suspicions of collusion with anti-government forces" and that he later attacked US troops in retaliation, according to the transcripts. Mujahid's defense was that he was promoted to a highway security job, not fired, and that he had always been friendly to American forces.
He requested four witnesses in Afghanistan, including the country's Interior Minister at the time, but was told that none could be contacted.
``The Afghan government was contacted on or about 26 November, 2004," the tribunal president told him, according to the transcript. ``As of this date, the Afghanistan government has not responded to our request. . . . Without the cooperation of that government, we are unable to contact those witnesses and to obtain the testimony you requested."
But in Afghanistan earlier this month, a reporter for the Globe located three of the four witnesses in a matter of days. The fourth witness is dead.
A phone call to President Karzai's office quickly led to Shahzada Masoud , an adviser to Karzai on tribal affairs. Masoud led an official delegation in May 2003 to Gardez, Mujahid's hometown about two hours south of Kabul, the capital, to persuade him to step down as police chief, a post in which he had served at the request of local elders since the fall of the Taliban regime in 2001.
Masoud said in an interview in Kabul that the move was part of a larger effort by the central government in Kabul to assert control across the country. Although Mujahid did not want to leave his post, and initially prevented his successor from entering the city, he eventually accepted and was given a lavish transfer-of-power ceremony attended by government dignitaries, Masoud said. American troops arrested Mujahid weeks later at his home.
A second witness, Gul Haider, the defense ministry representative who took part in Masoud's delegation, was found after the Globe obtained his phone number from a government official in Gardez. In an interview, Haider confirmed Masoud's account. He said that Mujahid had been promised a job protecting the highways in Kabul as a reward for leaving his post.
Haider, a former commander in the anti-Taliban Northern Alliance, described Mujahid as an ally of US troops, not a Taliban sympathizer. He recalled that Mujahid gave 30 of his own men to assist an American-led operation to clear Taliban members from a mountain cave in an area known as Shahikot in March 2002.
Haider said he had never heard any information that would lead him to believe that Mujahid turned on his former American allies, as was alleged at the hearings. Instead, he said, tribal and political rivalries probably landed Mujahid in Guantanamo -- with someone making false accusations. ``Afghanistan has many problems -- between tribes, communists, the Taliban," he said. ``That's why people like Abdullah [Mujahid], who are completely innocent, end up in jail."
The e-mail address for the third witness, former Afghan Interior Minister Ahmed Ali Jalali, was found with one call to the Interior Ministry. A quick Google search would have also located him: He is in Washington, D.C., teaching at the National Defense University.
Jalali, the man who made the decision to remove Mujahid from his post, said he wanted him ousted because of corruption and ``bullying," not sympathies with the Taliban or Al Qaeda. He said he had been on the verge of appointing Mujahid chief of a regiment of highway police, but that he changed his mind after he learned that Mujahid had stolen some police equipment.
Jalali said he learned months later that Mujahid had been taken to Guantanamo Bay because he was suspected of an attack on a provincial reconstruction team.
``I heard this, but I do not know the details," he said. ``I cannot pass judgment on this."
Mujahid's home in Gardez, a single-story building inside a high wall compound beside a field of swaying wheat, is well-known and easy to find. His relatives there are eager to show visitors a videotape of the ceremony during which he handed over power shortly before his capture.
The videotape, viewed by the Globe, shows the governor of Paktiya province at the time, Raz Muhammad Dalili, praising Mujahid in front of uniformed police officers and dignitaries, including Haider and Masoud.
``We have respect for Abdullah Mujahid, who brought peace and security to our province," the governor tells the audience. ``We are very grateful to him."
Other senior officials in Afghanistan's government support Mujahid's account.
The director of the Interpol Section of the Afghan National Police, General Ali Shah Paktiawal, said: ``He is innocent . . . Some people have given false information about him and that's why this problem has come up."
Taj Muhammad Wardak , who served as governor of Paktiya in 2002, said Mujahid ``had no contact with any terrorists or insurgents."
Wardak, who also served as interior minister, said that lies and rivalries had sent many innocent Afghans to Guantanamo Bay.
``I can tell you that most of the Afghans there are innocent," he said. ``You can investigate these people here. There is no need to send them to Guantanamo. It is a great sadness between our countries that will last for many years."

Americans advance on Afghan front
By Marcella Bombardieri, Globe Staff, and Bryan Bender, Globe Correspondent, 03/13/2002
LAKDIWAL, Afghanistan -- US and allied forces moved into new territory in the mountains of eastern Afghanistan yesterday as they flushed out battered remnants of Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters through airstrikes and ground battles.
US bombers pounded enemy positions and ground soldiers explored caves and tunnels around Shah-e-Kot that were once occupied by Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters, where they found at least a few dead enemy fighters, according to Afghan radio communiques.
Early today, a US spokesman said US and Afghan forces had claimed control of the entire Shah-e-Kot valley.
Major Bryan Hilferty told reporters that no more than 100 enemy fighters were believed to still be in the area.
"The Al Qaeda and Taliban are free to surrender," he said. "So far, they have all decided to die."
Even as the campaign, known as Operation Anaconda, was wrapping up, US special forces were reported to be beefing up their efforts elsewhere in Afghanistan, gathering intelligence on other areas where Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters may be regrouping, officials said, an indication that the offensive is likely to be followed by similar operations.
US and coalition aircraft flew 180 sorties over Afghanistan yesterday, dropping more than 100 bombs on remaining Taliban and Al Qaeda positions in the mountains of Shah-e-Kot, bringing to more than 2,500 the number of weapons targeted at the network of more than 40 caves, defense officials said.
American and allied forces faced only sporadic resistance from small pockets of enemy fighters as they operated around a mountain ridge known as "the whale's back."
While military officials said more than 1,200 US ground forces were working with several thousand Afghan troops loyal to the new government in Kabul, the allies yesterday appeared to have had conflicting views about how to bring an end to the 10-day-old campaign, the bloodiest fighting for US forces in the war in Afghanistan.
General Gul Haidar, a former Northern Alliance commander whose forces have reinforced ground troops in recent days, is reportedly trying to arrange negotiations with the holdouts, including possibly a 10-day cease-fire that will allow them to surrender or escape. Local officials said the negotiations could provide a way out for the commander of the Al Qaeda and Taliban forces, former Taliban military commander Saifurahman.
"Gul Haidar asked us to go and speak to the people and try for negotiations," said Ghulam Mohammed Farooq, deputy police chief of Zormat, a town close to Shah-e-Kot. "He promised, `I can stop the fighting for 10 days if Saifurahman is ready to join us or leave the area.' "
Many of the leaders of Zormat, like Farooq, are openly sympathetic to fellow Pashtun Saifurahman, who is the son of a celebrated mujahideen. Haidar, on the other hand, is seen as an outsider and leader of a mostly ethnic Tajik and Panjshiri force and has no apparent stake in trying to appease the remaining Taliban and Al Qaeda forces.
American officials have rebuffed negotiation proposals.
"The position the whole time has been these folks had the opportunity to surrender," said Major Brad Lowell, spokesman for the US Central Command in Tampa. "Clearly they can still surrender, and our stand at that point would be to move individuals into detention facilities to be screened."
Apache helicopter gunships flew close to the Almar mountain range yesterday morning, and Afghan troops moved farther into the mountains. Later in the day, three pickup trucks full of US special forces headed off toward the mountains from this tiny mud-hut village a few miles from the front line. US and allied forced encountered little resistance.
A group of US special forces met with members of the Gardez town council to enlist their help in preventing Al Qaeda and Taliban troops from receiving food, supplies, and shelter from sympathetic local Afghans.
There had been indications in recent days that the remaining Al Qaeda and Taliban forces, which numbered about 1,000 when the operation began March 2 but are now said to be about 100, may be losing their will and power to fight. Defense officials said this week that interrogations of fighters captured in recent days indicated that the enemy forces may have split into factions during the battle, with some supporting a negotiated settlement.
The Pentagon announced yesterday that US forces have detained more enemy fighters captured during combat and attempting to slip across the border into Pakistan.
"We've detained less than 20 folks," said Brigadier General John W. Rosa, deputy director of operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The US death toll in the operation remains at eight and the number of wounded at 49. Thirty-four of them have returned to the battle, the Pentagon reported. Three Afghans have been killed.
A senior Afghan commander told Reuters that the rebel fighters were full retreat toward the Pakistan border.
"The battle of Shah-e-Kot is over. A coalition of both Afghan and US forces has taken control of the entire Shah-e-Kot Valley," said General Abdullah Joyenda.
As the military effort in the Shah-e-Kot area entered its final stages, US special forces were reported to be closing in on other Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters in other areas of Afghanistan.
Afghan government officials in Kabul said they plan to send as many as 5,000 troops to four provinces around the capital where Al Qaeda and Taliban forces are also suspected of regrouping. US officials acknowledged that special forces are working with the Afghans to identify other targets.
"There's still a lot of work to be done in Afghanistan, and there are still pockets of resistance that we'll have to root out," said Defense Department spokeswoman Victoria Clarke.

He was at the time the Ministry of Defense Commander for 4 southern provinces including Paktika , Paktya and Ghazni .

Since then he has largely traded in his guns for business and has become quite successful .

Pañuelo blanco a la cabeza y mirada piadosa. Nadie diría que tiene frente ante sí a todo un comandante muyahidín de la antigua Alianza del Norte. Es ramadán y Gul Haidar pasa las horas hasta la llegada del iftar –momento de romper el ayuno cada atardecer- sentado bajo un gran rosal en el jardín de su casa de Kabul. “No es el Panjshir, pero ya me he acostumbrado a la capital”, asegura este hombretón que a los diecisiete años se unió a las fuerzas de Ahmed Sha Masoud para combatir en la yihad contra los rusos.
Gul Haidar con Haji Abdul Raza han cambiado el Panjshir por Kabul.
Rodeado de seguridad privada, aquí no se ve Policía por ninguna parte, vive las elecciones desde la distancia. Ni Hamid Karzai ni su compatriota del Panjshir Abdulá Abdulá le interesan demasiado, él está obsesionado por la seguridad y piensa que desde 2001 los talibanes están ganando terreno a una marcha demasiado rápida “por culpa de los americanos, que no saben cómo luchar”. ¿Qué opina del diálogo con los talibanes que proponen ambos candidatos? “La única solución es la guerra, pero una guerra de gente con ideología, no de mercenarios que luchan sólo por dinero como las fuerzas de OTAN y el nuevo Ejército afgano, así no derrotaremos nunca a este adversario. Uno de nuestros hombres vale por cien americanos”.
“Coge a ochenta mil muyahidines, ármalos, págales trescientos dólares al mes y acabaremos con Al Qaeda”, sentencia con ira tras recordar que a finales de 2001 marchó con mil de sus hombres hasta la provincia de Paktia y acabó con la resistencia en tres días, “los americanos llevaban quince días intentándolo y no podían”.
Supuestamente desarmados los señores de la guerra, comandantes, caudillos locales o como se les quiera denominar, siguen siendo los auténticos poderes fácticos en el país. En los últimos años han amasado importantes fortunas y ahora han cambiado el juego de la guerra por el de los negocios. El dinero, sin embargo, no ha sido suficiente para anular su instinto guerrero que ahora más que nunca quieren recuperar para acabar con la insurgencia al sur del país.
"El problema es que esto no le interesa a Washington. Ellos prefieren mantener a Al Qaeda para que este negocio no pare, y por eso llevamos tantos años de violencia", sentencia mientras se abraza a su inseparable Haji Abdul Raza para la foto. Compañeros de guerra ayer, socios para siempre.
