""Based on interviews with hundreds of detainees between October
2011 and October 2012, the 139-page report found "credible and reliable
evidence" that more than half of those interviewed experienced torture or abuse.
Of the 79 detainees interviewed who were transferred from NATO to Afghan control
during the 12 months, 25 were tortured, a rise of seven per cent over the
previous year's report. "The (Afghan) government's efforts to address torture
and those of ISAF (NATO's International Security Assistance Force), although
significant, have not resulted in a marked improvement and reduction in the use
of torture," said the report."" (thanks Amir)
