In July 2013, a motion was filed seeking his release because his physical and emotional health had deteriorated to the point where he could be seen as a threat.[2]

On February 10, 2021, Idris died at age 60 at his mother's home in Port Sudan.[3]

Now his New York lawyers are arguing a novel twist in a war-on-terror habeas corpus petition at the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. Rather than ask Chief Judge Royce Lamberth to judge what Idris did or did not do before he got to Guantánamo, they argue he's too fat, too crazy and too physically sick to be a danger in the future. So Lamberth should send him home.
