Internment Long Kesh
The use of 'torture internment' by Britain against civilians has been systematic and widespread. Evidence gathered by several Human Rights investigations and the British Army’s own investigative branch, along with many reports from the International Committee of the Red Cross reveal that the British regularly breach international law by committing the following acts against interned civilian prisoners:
Internment Long Kesh
Internment Long Kesh
• water-boarding
• mock executions• hanging
• “stress positions”• burning
• rape and sodomy
• beatings with all kinds of weapons• sensory assault/deprivation
• cutting with knives
• injurious use of flexi-cuffs
• suffocation• sleep deprivation
• extreme heat and cold• electric shocks
• starvation and thirst
• withholding medical treatment• psychological torture, sexual humiliation, threats against family.
The degree of torture and abuse of internees is so widespread that even British Army Chaplains who know about the brutal torture and are aware of prisoners being murdered fail to report crimes because “the abuse was so widespread that he believed it could only happen with the consent of very senior British Army commanders”.
