"U.S. interrogators have repeatedly sought to offend the religious beliefs of Muslim detainees as part of their interrogation strategy," Human Rights Watch said today.
Human Rights Watch said that the dispute over the retracted allegations in Newsweek that U.S. interrogators had desecrated a Koran at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, has overshadowed the fact that religious humiliation of detainees at Guantanamo and elsewhere has been widespread.
