sued for inciting religious hatred but fled to bulgaria before the court's decision . on a healthy choices some americans are forced to forgo via treatment because insurance companies refuse to cover of the expenses reigniting the need for barack healthcare system there are fears the newer forms. after republicans took over the house and the midterm elections. and when looking and smelling good can turn out bad russians allured by fake us maddux can end up paying a big price for beauty according to the ministry of internal affairs some thirty percent of all those medics in the country are counterfeit. and one of the lawyers who is taking up a rocky cases against techniques used during the british campaign in the country speaks to r t net's david scheiner explains why the his clients went and why they demand a public inquiry. today

i'm talking to fellow shina who is a human rights lawyer and the head of public interest lawyers there representing a group of iraqis who allege that coalition forces abused them during the occupation of iraq they'll sign a thank you very much for talking to r.t. now you're taking a case to the high court representing one hundred forty two iraq east tell me what that's all about. of these iraqi clients complain that over a period of time the whole time that we were in iraq actually from march two thousand and three to december two thousand and eight. they complain of this sense of deprivation with hoods or blacked out gobbles or earmuffs all sorts of sexual matters various techniques designed to intimidate and coerce including harshing where threats and insults of the shouted directly into people's faces. a whole range of issues is in my all right. all sorts of very

troubling aspects of the yukos interrogation policy none of which has been fully explored and there's that there's a sort of odd sexual element to a lot of these claims isn't that sexualized nature it is a lot to do with nakedness some accusations of pornography having been used yes well it's clear that the interrogation policy included a directive to all ways of strip that the iraqi in turn is forced make us and keep them naked if they wouldn't cooperate. now this nakedness was to take place often in front of a group of soldiers who'd be laughing and and sometimes when so some of our clients refused to strip so force was used to. strip that the iraqis and then shades into other matters so for example one of our clients complained that

one of the soldiers straddled his back and masturbated on his on his back when he was naked that kind of that kind of abuse can often follow from that struggle to strip clients but there are other aspects as well for example many of our clients complain that they were played loud hardcore pornography all night sometime in june ramadan obviously they were intended to render themselves unclean or poor marks were left in the showers and the toilets and they'd be observed to see how they reacted to the. female and male soldiers and guards were having sex in front of our clients masturbating in front of a whole range. of sexual matters which are very troubling and no one has got the beginning of an explanation as to what on earth was going on

this is all taking place within a secret compound. which is where the joint forward interrogation team was operating and they were a compound within a compound on simple not to the military chain of command but to london and no one seems to have gone anywhere near them by design. we're not aware that the red cross every inspected the the area that was the joint for interrogation team so they seemed to be able to do what they wanted. and one of the. interrogators in the bar whose inquiry gave evidence on the twenty sixth of april of this year saying the only limits to coercion were with the limits the stretches of one's imagination and you can see that very clearly in all of the complaints that are being made. but these are hugely serious allegations are made against british troops what kind of evidence is being provided it. should say that again

spoke to soldiers and guards for sure but a lot of these are being made against interrogators. in terms the evidence well the evidence is that this is the signed witness statements of all of these clients and i have to say that not one of our clients has been found by any court or inquiry to be embellishing the truth let alone lying and there's absolutely no reason why they would make this up because it's a matter of gross humiliation for a male muslim to be subjected to these matters are i myself have no doubts that what they're saying is the truth and it is a pattern for example. in august two thousand and six i'm a divisional internment facility scheiber logistics base there were two incidents

where interrogators of superimposed our points photographs. on two horrific paedophilic images of one. a man having sex with a young girl and another is a man having sex with. a ten year old boy our client is sure it's a ten year old boy and they've superimposed points of photographs on those images print them out signal if you don't tell us what we want to know then we're going to distribute these to your community your family it's easy to imagine that these kinds of abuses could have been perpetrated by rogue elements in the armed forces but in fact your thinking to prove that this ill treatment is systemic in the armed forces there's no doubt that this is systemic within the interrogation. policy because we have those documents from the bottomless inquiry so we know for example that there was

a policy of getting them naked get the make you keep them naked if they don't cooperate the way in which there was to be searched the harshing we have video. the training video of us on the bomb machine quite a website these are clearly systemic issues and it's absolute nonsense to suggest this is a few but. that's the interrogation policy needs to be exposed and we need to ensure that we never go into theater again with with an interrogation policy which is blatantly unlawful what kinds of people are these iraqis that are making these allegations tell me tell me a couple of their stories how they came to be arrested what happened. what bylaws they're in their homes usually sleep with their wives usually one o'clock two o'clock in the morning the door is exploded open twenty soldiers rushin. they're abused caffe often rifle sometimes hooded sometimes the women and children are

abused in two of our cases pregnant women. miscarriages because they've been so badly abused. our clients are iraqis and civilians they don't know what they've done they're never told they're never charged and after days weeks months years their venture release but not before they've been subjected to all of this abuse kept in solitary confinement deprived of food and water deprived to sleep etc centra. but they all seem to be by and large iraqi civilians who are going about their lawful business and they've no idea what they've done wrong and they still don't know what they've done wrong because no one ever told them oh you're going to be charged with x. y. and said allied forces they must be operating in a hugely difficult situation in that they were trying to eradicate an insurgency obviously unpleasant means had to be used but did they not contribute towards an

end which was desirable well i wouldn't accept that for a minute this isn't the heat of battle this is the occupation. we're supposed to be . running iraq we are the local and central administration we are the police we are training to do do we are one in the country if we take iraqi civilians into our custody and then over a period of weeks months subject them to that kind of ill treatment there's no excuse for that whatsoever unless you're suggesting that torture is not actually an absolute prohibition sometimes it's ok to use a bit of torture which is just plain me on acceptable and it's completely contrary to international law what's the objective of the case that you're bringing this week. we want a single inquiry into the u.k.'s detention and interrogation policies in iraq across the board get it over with get it dealt with in public before judge.

find out exactly what was going wrong who was responsible which policies and practices need to be trained out. and rewritten. so we can all move on and on all be assured that next time if there is a next time. where we go into a theatre like iraq. our armed forces and our interrogators want to scrapes the nation by behaving in this way. we the u.k. is becoming known for length and expensive inquiries i'm thinking of the bloody sunday inquiry which took twelve years the chilcote inquiry which is still ongoing is there a chance that this if you get what you want could turn into one of the. i doubt it very much but the bar most inquiry the oral hearings commenced in september two thousand and nine and it's all over in less than a year there's absolutely no reason why something like this should become anything

like a bloody sunday enquiry the the various sets of lawyers need to cooperate. which needs to have a sensible approach to how long each. party is going to be heard in the by recent corrie the chair so william gage allowed us and others fifteen minutes only and when you got to the end of the fifteen minutes that was that. there's no reason why with some common sense and discipline this needs to take anything longer than a couple of years or so it hasn't been plain sailing to get this far to bring this case you face quite a lot of opposition over a number. in the past i've had death threats powers and all sorts of things sent through the post and their mo d. is to look. systematically stirred that up getting right wing press to write horror stories you know shock horror shine a x. for people who've murdered. u.k.

soldiers if it was all cut and dried and he's using legal aid etc etc but i think it's not got anywhere because people can see that there's something gone badly wrong here and slowly some elements of the press have turned away from the minister of defense and started taking a more objective approach there's a long way to go because we live action quite a a right wing society with quite a right wing press and a lot of the press just follow the government line but i think the penny's beginning to drop and that people in high places within the ministry of defense i think begin to realize that the game's up they're just not going to get away with this cover up for much longer you are the public interests lawyer do you think it's in the public's interests to spend public money proving that there is systemic corruption inside our armed forces i think it's in the public interest that if we

go into a place like iraq. supposedly to enforce the rule of law and principles of democracy fairness and justice good old fashioned british principles that we behave in accordance with that and we haven't done and i think it's in the public interest that that behavior should be exposed and eradicated and those who are responsible brought to account. thank you very much thank you very much. do you feel like a show. called touch from the dumpster. like. video on demand. and omissions feature now in the palm of your.

wanted another that's what's best for defeating the right however to balance by speaking to the break into thinking it's thought i was very happy to post or because i've been struggling with her score for for many games so i know it but only when do you so i'm very very good before i go to this is a very very good team and it's a challenge for us to kind of measure ourselves and see how we compare against the best team from from the east so i guess if you look at it. maybe there will be more more of it tonight kind of proves that we're boring if you. want some but i'm gonna be ok as you cross sixty one time i says it's all about you life was surprisingly strong also sixty by far east atlanta sort of after the least for one defending champions x. boss came from three goals down to a full three top lead of scots in petersburg also fought back to win three one time

just to bad luck ninety thrashed nefesh you make seventy two cents to nine minutes he was issues asked to defeat the chants. and finally coaling is a forty new sport for russians but the country sports bosses are keen for it to dominate the next winter games in sochi so the national olympic committee has turned to canada for help from uncle suresh as more i was girding is traditionally popular in countries like canada as well. serlin sweden and denmark to name just a few and it's been that way there for hundreds of years however in russia which has had the same weather per record as as those countries along the sport of curling has somehow failed to reach the masses a fact which has been considered and the major disadvantage especially head of the next whole winter olympics but russian sports authorities are aiming for nothing less than to defy the odds at the next winter games and have formed an experimental

national team which includes a coach and players from canada i think what has to happen here is you have to get fresh on the forefront if not all competition and all that even after the woman russian punk eleven said instead of having it all over the records of women girls to start playing feeling so i think that has seen its creation of a man if we can get the men where they qualifying to the road or the european championships playing at the world level and start showing some results at the world level people death it's more about that it will probably be a long while before the russians can embrace curling as a favorite sport or even pastime as has happened with bowling for example but first things first the country's national squads meet to stake a claim on the international curling circuit while the ladies' scene has already started making a name for itself the men's side is definitely lacking both in results and recognition it was hoped they invited canadian curlers would raise the level of

russia's domestic competitions and that's already happening according to tiny woodbridge but the players themselves are ready to go the extra mile for the team and become naturalized citizens of russia to realize there is a big dream if we are fortunate enough to go and help him to go i mean we'd be all too willing to make if it works make it happen you know when you're on a team you spend so much time training other and then you know together with and with alexis alexander we know it would mean the world to them to get to you know represent rush and international competition. if we can help you do that with now for us human resources is just one of the ellipticals that needs to be overcome and roots in a big lorry suitable infrastructure for curling is the next hurdle which will beat second head on by russia sport bosses and according to hans woodbridge the chief ice maker at the vancouver olympics now hired by the russian olympic committee the success of curling is possible in russia the sport will get more popular ask us time goes on you know like in canada we have over one million up difference. it's

just going to grow to more it's going to grow you can have steak could anyone have wheelchair curling you can have all kinds of things that are new so you will have to be just meet some of these and maybe they sneak through so many people that the precise move even though occurring in russia at the moment is under developed to say the least the country's national teams are expected to deliver a good result at the winter and big games in sochi and those home games in the year twenty fourteen could become the necessary catalyst for the advancement of this so far exotic sport in the biggest country on earth or a man cos rev artsy. and that's all this post news by the now. hungry for the full story we've got it for us the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers.
