British Lawyer: U.S. Torture not just at Abu Ghraib
/A British lawyer said Tuesday he had uncovered
evidence that U.S. troops mistreated detainees in the northern Iraqi
city of Mosul, suggesting abuse had spread far beyond the notorious Abu
Ghraib prison in Baghdad. Phil Shiner sent Reuters statements by two
Iraqis who said they were hooded, stripped naked, beaten and doused
with cold water at lengthy torture sessions in a place called "the
disco" because of loud Western music constantly blasted at detainees.
One said he had seen a 14-year-old boy bleeding from his anus. The
other said he was threatened with sexual assault. [more
