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.
