U.N. Torture Expert Says U.S. Should Probe Bush-Era Torture Claims With Intention to Prosecute

CNSnews:


(CNSNews.com) – The U.N. Human Rights Council’s newly installed expert on torture says the Obama administration should investigate allegations of torture under President George W. Bush and prosecute those responsible – including those who gave the orders.
Juan Ernesto Mendez said in an interview with Reuters this week he hoped to visit Iraq to investigate alleged detainee torture as well as the U.S. military detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba – but only on the condition that he would be allowed to speak privately with terror suspects being held there.

“The United States has a duty to investigate every act of torture,” Reuters quoted him as saying. “Unfortunately, we haven't seen much in the way of accountability.”
