Britain treated terror suspects `inhumanely'

SCATHING CRITICISM: A report on terrorist suspects in British jails slammed the government, which was also assailed by rights groups for withholding the report

Britain's detention without trial of foreign terror suspects subjected some of them to "inhuman and degrading treatment," the European watchdog on torture said in a hard-hitting report released on Thursday.
The Council of Europe's Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT), which visited the detainees in February 2002 and March last year, said detention without trial caused mental disorders in most of the detainees.
