Al-Maghrebi's account

[edit]

Until December, 2014, when the United States Senate Intelligence Committee released a 600 page summary of a massive analysis of the CIA's use of torture, Human rights workers had to rely entirely on the memory of former captives, like al-Maghrebi, for the conditions of their detention.[5] Human Rights Watch's On October 8, 2016, the New York Times started publishing a series of articles on the on-going mental problems suffered by individuals who had been tortured by the USA.[1] Al-Maghrebi was one of the individuals whose problems they described.
