In a plea from Guantánamo, Binyam Mohamed talks of “betrayal” by the UK.

Andy Worthington on the High Court’s significant judgment in favour of British resident Binyam Mohamed last week. Judges ruled that the British government had an obligation to hand over evidence in its possession relating to his rendition and torture. The Court’s second judgment ruled that the government’s attempts to prevent disclosure for reasons of “national security” were insufficient.

The outcome of the British High Court’s hearing on the case of Binyam Mohamed may open an important crack in the wall of secrecy that surrounds the CIA’s rendition, detention, and interrogation abuses, writes Joanne Mariner.

Richard Tyler reports on the recent High Court ruling that the British government must disclose information that could support the claim that torture was used to extract confessions from Binyam Mohamed, a former British resident who has been held in Guantánamo Bay since September 2004.

Tom Griffin reports on the recent High Court judgement which ruled that British security services colluded in the unlawful detention and interrogation of Binyam Mohamed, a UK resident detained in Pakistan six years ago.

The British government’s complicity in American’s regime of torture and kidnapping is highlighted, writes Andy Worthington, by its refusal to disclose information it may possess to the effect that Binyam Mohamed, a British resident who has been imprisoned without trial for over six years in Guantanamo Bay and elsewhere, has been tortured.

By using terror to fight terror, the abuses at Guantanamo Bay not only deny justice to the inmates, but to the whole world argues George Monbiot.

On Tuesday, Binyam Mohamed, a 29-year old British resident in Guantánamo, sued the British government for refusing to produce evidence which, his lawyers contend, would demonstrate that he was tortured for 27 months by or on behalf of US forces in Morocco and Afghanistan, that any “evidence” against him was only obtained through torture, and that the British government and intelligence services knew about his torture and provided personal information about him — unrelated to terrorism — that was used by the Americans’ proxy torturers in Morocco. Andy Worthington reports.
