Hezbollah: ‘Secret jail’ housed in Ministry of Interior (Iraq)

(Al-Bayyna) – Al-Bayyna has received top confidential information from a high ranking security source, on condition of anonymity, about two floors of the ministry of interior being used as a jail to detain innocent people illegally arrested by the police. The ministry, in an attempt to keep the issue secret, has refused entry of general inspectors into the building for an inspection of that alleged jail.
(Al-Bayyna is a weekly paper issued by the Hezbollah movement in Iraq.)

2. Copycats...

They're just making their own little Gitmo. They must have bought Ashcroft's How To Subjugate Your Citizens handbook...
