FBI agent states that he entered an interview room at Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay and observed an inmate kneeling on the floor with his forehead on the ground. There was a small amount of blood on the floor near the inmate's face. The inmate's nose appeared to be bleeding. The agent asked the military personnel what had happened and they explained that the inmate had become upset with them and threw himself to the floor. The agent reports that he saw nothing else to contradict the military personnel's rendition of events. The agent also stated that he had heard previously that one of the female military personnel would let her hands touch the inmates as part of their psych-ops to make the inmate "unclean" and upset them.
