Guantanamo man 'suing government'

A British terror suspect held in Guantanamo Bay for 33 months plans to sue the government, it is reported.

Martin Mubanga claimed in the Observer that an MI6 officer played a key role in consigning him to the US camp in Cuba, following his arrest in Zambia.

Mr Mubanga, 32, from Wembley, London, said he was brutally interrogated and daubed with urine at the camp.

The home secretary said he would not be launching an investigation and that the media reports were not "well informed".

Mr Mubanga, who has dual British and Zambian nationality, was one of four Britons who were released from the US camp in January...



...Mr Mubanga, who insists he does not feel bitter, said: "I've lost three years of my life, because I was a Muslim.

He added: "The authorities wanted to break me but they strengthened me. They've made me what I am - even if I'm not quite sure yet who that person is."

The US government denied the claims, saying it condemned and prohibited torture. In a statement, it said: "The Department of Defense has no doubt that Mr Mubanga was properly detained as an enemy combatant under the laws of war.

"He was detained to prevent him from fighting against the US and our allies in the war on terror."

What laws of War? Don't they only apply during war? I don't know shit about these laws, but the name sort of implies. I guess he was charged with, thinking about maybe plotting to conspire against the US.

...Mr Mubanga and the three other freed British detainees were released without charge by UK police on their return from Cuba...

Never mind. Scratch that.

And no we didn't torture him, we just put a mop drenched in his own urine, while he was chained. Oh please, it was HIS OWN urine. Your going to stand there and tell me you've never wet yourself, or pissed in the shower. Same thing. Hippie twats.

Now either we are in Bizarro world, or one of Rob Sterlings fucked up dreams.
