Officials to be procuted for their role in interrogation prosecuted for interrogation techniques, following tore future practices at hidden sites around the world, and no useful intelligence was gained from torturing prisoniers. Reporter hundreds of pages of evidence of what happened to 119 men detained in secret prisons, like this one in lithuania. The cia programme was more brutal than people were led to believe. Detainees were deprived sleep for 180 hours. Five forced to have enemas, not for medical reasons.
