The detainee stated he had been "tortured by his captures" and that is how he recieved the burn marks. He did not state who his captors were, but the US military commander of the facility reported the incident to the Temporary Holding Facility chain of command.

Subject: TF 6-26 Update
Several days ago a detainee arrived to the Temporary Holding Facility (THF) from one of the outstations. The outstations are used to gain tactical intelligence from detainees immediately after they are captured by the military, and are usually held there for several days. The outstations are manned with their own interrogators and interpreters. Upon arrival to the THF, all detainees are screened by medical personnel and biometric information is collected. The detainee that arrived several days ago appeared to have marks (burns) on him that seemed suspicious. When questioned about the marks, the detainee stated that he had been tortured by his captures. Immediately this information was reported to the TF 6-26 Chain of Command, and there is currently a military 15-6 4yasligption .. .. ........... was shared with all members working at the THF (military, FBI ilDHS)..and..all were reminded to report
bl
any indication of detainee abuse. Additionally, we were told th–arthis incident is being handled-bylhe -------------
Chain of Command. I will provide further updates as they are shared with me. "
