The UK failed to track detainees handed over to the US, neglecting to protect them from possible torture in America's secret prisons. That's been revealed after an agreement between the two states on the treatment of terror-suspects captured in Iraq was declassified. 28-year-old Pakistani Yunus Rahmatullah is one of the victims of this deal. He was seized by British soldiers in Iraq in 2004 as a suspected insurgent and secretly sent to a US detention camp in Afghanistan, a process dubbed extraordinary rendition. The man's lawyers are calling on the UK to help free him as Britain was the detaining authority.

Craig Murray has provided this interesting related document via his X account. Here's what he said about it earlier:


"I just came across evidence on CIA torture I gave before the European Parliament 20 years ago. Many on Twitter then infant or unborn have eyes opened by genocide in Gaza. Read this and understand the evil the western powers do is endemic."
