Human rights committee calls David Miliband and Jacqui Smith for questioning over torture claims
Binyam Mohamed was detained in Pakistan and questioned by MI5 officers before being "rendered" by the United States to Morocco, where his lawyers claim he suffered appalling torture. They also claim that some of the questions he was asked in Morocco had been supplied by British authorities.
...
In the high court last week Lord Justice Thomas and Mr Justice Lloyd Jones made clear they wanted to see evidence of the alleged torture of Mohamed disclosed. But they said they could not order disclosure in the light of claims by Miliband that the US had threatened to stop sharing intelligence with the UK, if the information - supplied by US officials - was released.
Lawyers for the media and Mohamed will argue today that Miliband's denial of a US threat undermined the high court's reluctant decision to suppress the information. In their ruling the judges blamed the US, with British connivance, for keeping "powerful evidence" relating to Mohamed's ill-treatment secret.
