Guantanamo Prisoner's Lawyers Accuse US Defense Secretary
http://www.truthout.org/122308C
Richard Norton-Taylor, The Guardian UK: "Lawyers for a British
resident held at Guantanamo Bay have accused Robert Gates, the US
defence secretary, of signing a 'flagrantly false' affidavit to avoid
having to disclose evidence of torture. In a sworn affidavit to a
district court in Washington, Gates says the US authorities have
provided Binyam Mohamed's lawyers and the British government with all
the information they possess relating to Mohamed's treatment while
held in secret prisons. Gates declared his affidavit to be the truth
'under penalty of perjury.'"
