Pakistani says he was tortured in US custody
2009-01-07
...and I'll bet they peed on his Koran too.
A Pakistani national who spent more than six years in US custody — five of them at the Guantanamo Bay military prison — says he was subjected to torture and abuse by his US captors and plans to sue the US government.
Why sue? Bambi will give you whatever you want and call it a 'bailout' ...
Saad Iqbal, now back home in Lahore told The New York Times he was beaten, tightly shackled, his head covered with a hood, given drugs and subjected to electric shocks by Egyptian interrogators at the urging of US agents after being arrested without charges in Jakarta in 2002. Iqbal's attorney Richard Cys told the newspaper he plans to sue the US government for unlawfully detaining Iqbal.
