This journey proved to be near fatal for Yvonne, and the team. As Yvonne Ridley said: "During the making of this documentary film-maker Hassan al Banna Ghani and myself took numerous risks including a hazardous drive through Taliban-controlled country on our way to Ghazni. We got caught up in crossfire between Taliban fighters and Afghan police, and the camera never stopped rolling. It was a hair-raising experience which took us right to the gates of Bagram. We accrued some powerfull evidence and statements during the journey which frankly puts a huge question mark over the official US version of the Dr Aafiya Siddiqui story. And now Binyam's own statement makes it increasingly difficult for the US to continue to deny Dr Aafiya was held in Bagram".
