The New York Times is reporting the Pentagon has identified nearly fifty new videotapes of CIA interrogations in Iraq and at Guantanamo Bay. The military began reviewing the tapes in January after the CIA admitted to destroying videotapes of interrogations. Meanwhile, lawyers for a prisoner in the so-called war on terror are asking the government to release tapes of his interrogation. Ali al-Marri has been jailed at a Navy brig in South Carolina since 2003. According to his lawyers, al-Marri says he’s been told there are cabinets full of tapes documenting his abuse at the hands of US officials.
