We were tortured and the Foreign Office did nothing to stop it, claim three more British detainees

Foreign Secretary David Miliband is today facing fresh allegations that Britain knew about - and colluded in - the illegal torture of its citizens abroad.

Three British citizens have come forward to claim that they were tortured during five years in prison in Pakistan.

The men, all thought to be of Pakistani origin, were being held by police on criminal, rather than terror-related charges.

Last night it was not clear to what extent Britain was complicit in the alleged mistreatment of Naheem Hussain, Rehan Zaman and Fazal Hussain.

However, the men are expected to use a press conference today to claim, at the very least, that the Foreign Office knew about their mistreatment and did not do enough to stop it.

1. Tony had his nose too far up Bush's ass to notice!

Tony is every bit as guilty of EVERYTHING as Bush is.

I'll bet those two perverts got their jollies out of thinking about the people they were having tortured and murdered. Tony and George are two of a kind!
