Iraq investigates 'abuse of detainees'
11.26PM, Tue Nov 15 2005
Iraq's government is to investigate the alleged abuse of more than 170 detainees held by Iraqi security forces in Baghdad.
The detainees were found by US forces locked in an underground bunker. According to Iraq officials, many were malnourished, while some had been beaten and apparently tortured.
Prime Minister Ibrahim Jaafari has ordered an investigation into the case.
Deputy interior minister Hussein Kamal said: "I saw signs of physical abuse by brutal beating, one or two detainees were paralysed and some had their skin peeled off various parts of their bodies."
The detainees were discovered on Sunday night during a raid by US troops who were searching for a missing teenage boy.
The prisoners were found in an underground cell near an Interior Ministry compound in Jadriya, a central Baghdad neighbourhood.
Iraq officials said the detainees had all originally been detained with arrest warrants. They had now been moved to another facility where they were receiving medical assistance.
Most detainees are suspected of supporting the Sunni Arab insurgency against the Shi'ite- and Kurdish-led government.
Iraq's Sunni Arab minority has accused militias linked to the Shi'ite-run Interior Ministry and Shi'ite political parties of rounding up Sunnis in raids and holding them without charge. The government has denied the accusations.
US military sources said troops were shocked when they came across the prisoners, some of whom showed the marks of beatings and looked like they had not been fed well for weeks.
"It's not what we expected at all, we were looking for a 15-year-old boy," said a soldier from the 3rd Infantry Division, the Baghdad-based US force which conducted the raid.
The allegations follow the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal that broke last year, in which US troops were found to have physically abused and sexually humiliated detainees at a notorious prison on the western outskirts of Baghdad.
