美國法官昨晚預定布什政府解釋CIA是否通過毀壞二個恐怖主義嫌疑犯的苛刻的審訊的錄影帶違犯了判決。
美國地方法院法官亨利・肯尼迪，在2005定購政府保存信息關於囚犯虐待在美國海軍基地在關塔那摩海灣，古巴，在磁帶預定了一次法庭審訊在星期五，忽略政府反對。
律師為一個小組關塔那摩比賽他們的拘留的海灣囚犯請求聽力學會政府是否遵照保存順序。 They cited reports that information obtained from the interrogations implicated five unnamed Guantanamo detainees.
“We hope to establish a procedure to review the government’s handling of evidence in our case … and generally to require an accounting from a government that has admitted that it destroyed evidence,” said David Remes, an attorney for the group of inmates.
He declined to comment on whether he believed any of his clients were implicated during the interrogations.
The CIA on December 6th disclosed that it had destroyed hundreds of hours of interrogation tapes, prompting an outcry from congressional Democrats and human rights activists. The sessions recorded on the tapes were believed to have included a form of simulated drowning known as waterboarding, which has been condemned internationally as torture.
The CIA said it destroyed the tapes lawfully and did so out of concern for the safety of agents involved if the recordings were ever made public. The White House has repeatedly denied the United States tortures terrorism suspects.
The Justice Department declined to comment on the judge’s hearing order but the department last week urged Kennedy not to investigate the videotapes.
