Australian Network Airs New Photos of Abu Ghraib Abuse

HeadlineFeb 15, 2006

Meanwhile, the Australian public broadcaster SBS says it has obtained previously unpublished photographs of prisoners abused by US forces at Abu Ghraib. The pictures show a man with his throat slit, another with massive head injuries and a third covered in what appears to be feces. SBS reported: “The extent of the abuse shown in the photos suggests that the torture and abuse that occurred at Abu Ghraib in 2004 is much worse than is currently understood.”
