Othman Ahmed Othman Al Omairah (also transliterated as Othman Ahmad Othman al-Ghamdi) was a citizen of either Yemen or Saudi Arabia, who was held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba.

His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 184. Joint Task Force Guantanamo counter-terrorism analysts estimate he was born in 1973, in Shabwa, Yemen.

Othman was identified differently on official US documents and official Saudi documents.

He was identified as Othman Ahmed Othman Al Omairah on official lists of captives from April 2006, May 2006 and September 2007, and on the memos that summarized the allegations against him.

But, on June 25, 2006, the USA repatriated 14 men to Saudi Arabia, including a man the Saudi government identified as Othman Ahmad Othman al-Ghamdi.

The DoD reports that he was a citizen of Yemen.

A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for his tribunal. The memo listed the following allegations against him:

Detainees whose Combatant Status Review Tribunal labeled them "enemy combatants" were scheduled for annual Administrative Review Board hearings. These hearings were designed to assess the threat a detainee might pose if released or transferred, and whether there were other factors that warranted his continued detention.

A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for Othman Ahmed Othman Al Omairah Administrative Review Board, on 20 September 2005. The memo listed factors for and against his continued detention. His memo was three pages long.

There is no record that Othman Ahmad Othman al-Ghamdi chose to attend either his Combatant Status Review Tribunal or his Administrative Review Board hearing.

On June 25, 2006 14 men were transferred from Guantanamo to Saudi Arabia. A Saudi identified as Othman Ahmad Othman al-Ghamdi was identified as one of the released men.
