US criticised for not shutting Guantanamo
United Nations human rights investigators criticised the US today for failing to take steps to close the Guantanamo Bay prison for terror suspects, which they say facilitates torture and violates international law.
The rights experts, who report to the global body’s top human rights watchdog, renewed their call for Guantanamo to be closed and criticised the administration of US President George Bush for a proposed law they said might permit torture in certain circumstances.
