Timeline
In late February 2011 Abdul-Ahad entered Libya to report on the Libyan civil war. He was detained on 2 March by the Libyan Army in the town of Sabratha. His traveling companion, the Brazilian journalist Andrei Netto of O Estado de S. Paulo was released on 10 March, with Netto attributing his release to the good relationship between Brazil and Libya. On 13 March Amnesty International and others called for Abdul-Ahad to be released; he was finally released on 16 March, after the Turkish government assisted negotiations and editor Alan Rusbridger flew to Tripoli.
In October 2010 Abdul-Ahad was imprisoned for five days by the Taliban fighters he had gone to interview.
In October 2005, he published his book Unembedded: Four Independent Photojournalists on the War in Iraq which features his photography along with that of Kael Alford, Thorne Anderson and Rita Leistner.
After the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Abdul-Ahad became a freelance photographer for Getty Images and journalist, writing for the British The Guardian from 2004.
He began doing street photography in 2001 and was determined to document conditions in Baghdad during the war. This aroused suspicion, and he was arrested three days before the end of major combat operations, though he was able to escape by bribing his guards.
