US Abused Rights Post 9-11
The BBC reports that an inspection of the US Justice
Department found that some people living in the US illegally were abused and
held in harsh conditions. Only one of these people was found to be terrorists,
but many were detained for more than a month before being interrogated or even
charged with a crime. In New York, 84 detainees were locked up for 23 hours
a day and were given only one phone call a week and wore hand-cuffs, leg-chains,
and heavy chains. They also suffered physical and verbal abuse.
