Abdul Latif Nasir (Arabic: عبد اللطيف ناصر) is a Moroccan man formerly held in administrative detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba.[3] His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 244. Joint Task Force Guantanamo counter-terrorism analysts report he was born on March 4, 1965, in Casablanca, Morocco. Abdul Latif Nasir and Sufyian Barhoumi tried to file emergency requests to be transferred from Guantanamo in the final days of Barack Obama's presidency.[4]

His story was covered on a podcast by Radiolab, called The Other Latif, which was hosted by the similarly named Latif Nasser.

He was released on July 19, 2021, as part of an effort by the Biden administration to shut down the Guantanamo Bay detention facility.[5]
