British male soldiers may have sexually tortured male Iraqi prisoners of war, London’s Telegraph reported June 1.
One soldier has been arrested, after dropping off incriminating film for processing back in Britain, and the other seven members of
his unit are under investigation by the Special Investigation Branch of the Royal Military Police.
According to the Telegraph, ‘ [One] picture showed a pair of white legs and the head of an Iraqi. The hand of a man behind the
Iraqi’s head appeared to be forcing him to perform a sex act. [Another] picture showed a pair of bare bottoms with an Iraqi on his
knees on the floor and his body bent. Another man was pressed behind him in what seemed to be a sexual position. [Another] picture
appears to show two naked Iraqis cowering on the ground.’
