The U.S. military has arrested and detained the Muslim chaplain who counsels detainees at Guantanamo Bay. The Guardian of London reports Army Capt. Yousef Yee is being held on suspicion of espionage and providing “improper assistance” to inmates there. Yee is the first known U.S. soldier to be detained in the so-called war on terror. Charges have not been filed against the New Jersey born Yee who was detained nearly two weeks ago. He is being held at a military brig in Charleston, S.C. where the U.S. has been holding Yaser Esam Hamdi and Jose Padilla both of whom have been charged as enemy combatants.
