21. In Camp Vigilant, the section of Abu Ghraib
prison were most persons deprived of their liberty
held for security reasons were confined, the ICRC
interviewed persons deprived of their liberty who
alleged to have been ill­
treated by CF soldiers while

temporary held in Al-Baghdadi Air Base. Out of the

7C-8O persons deprived of their liberty that reported

to have been held there, 25 alleged to have suffered

ill-treatment. They stated that they had been made

s:: on their knees for long hours while handcuffed in

the back, that they had endured frequent beating on

parts of the body, incl

...:ding the genitals,

while hooded, and that they nad been subjected to

sleep dhprivation. A method described in the

allegations consisted in forcing persons deprived ct

the__ liberty to lie face down, their hands cuffed

behind their back and shackled to their ankles for two

to three boars. While in this position, soldiers

would allegedly insert in'their mouths cloths full of

dust and hot pepper, • One person deprived of his

liberty arrested on 21 August alleged that he had been
hooded, beaten and placed naked in front of an air
conditioning machine while cold water was thrown on
his body. A dog, initially with a muzzle, attached
him with its paws and then bit him on the right thigh

(according to the examination of the ICRC doctor, he
had marks compatible with a dog bite). In the right
shoulder he had a hepatoma and _;near marks compatible

with repeated whipping cr beating. He had wrist marks

compatible withtight fieri-cuffs.

The ICRC also collected allegations of deaths as a

result of harsh internment conditions, ill

-treatment,

lack of medical attention, or the combination thereof,
notably in Tikrit holding area formerly known as the
Saddam Hussein Islamic School.

We currently have approximately 50 open actions, ranging from a slap in the face to deaths. We are required on a weekly basis to provide investigative updates to CID Command, who in turn briefs the SECDEF. at the end of the

been nothing less than a great challenge Identifying whether or not the detainees are prOviding false Information, a
