A British resident being held at Guantanamo Bay has won a ruling in Britain’s High Court, which ordered the British government to release secret documents that may help prove he was tortured by American forces. Thirty-year-old Binyam Mohamed alleges that his confession to terrorism charges was given only after he had his penis sliced by a blade. The case is likely to reveal in more detail the level of cooperation between the US and British governments in the program of “extraordinary rendition,” which sent terror suspects to secret locations around the world to be tortured.
