Guantanamo inmate wins right to see secret 'torture' evidence


Guantanamo inmate wins right to see secret 'torture' evidence

A British resident facing the death penalty at Guantanamo Bay has won his case for the Government to disclose secret evidence that he says supports claims he was tortured into confessing to crimes he did not commit.

"The court has yet to decide whether the Foreign Secretary is within the law to withhold the information on the ground of national security".

Let me assist the court on this issue, it is a absolute human right not to be tortured. Therefore, there is no legal argument to withhold information on the ground of national security.
