EMINEM - EMINEM'S COPYRIGHT CASE AGAINST GUANTANAMO
Rap star EMINEM could sue the US Government because they play his music to inmates at Camp X-Ray in Guantanamo Bay without permission.
THE ROAD TO GUANTANAMO director MICHAEL WINTERBOTTOM discovered prisoners at the notorious detention centre are blasted with the rappers music as a form of punishment.
And he claims the hip-hop star should take the military to court for copyright abuse.
Winterbottom - whose film follows four British male inmates at Camp X-Ray - says, "Music by Eminem was apparently used most of the time.
"So the boys' lawyer, CLIVE STAFFORD SMITH - who is currently trying to bring a case against the Americans for their mistreatment of prisoners in Guantanamo - has said that.
"Eminem would have good grounds for suing the government over abuse of his copyright."
