Jailed - for showing dislike of US invaders
Jailed - for showing dislike of US invaders

Hundreds of Iraqi prisoners were held in Abu Ghraib prison for long periods even though there was no evidence that they posed a security threat to US forces, a US Army report says.

The unpublished report, by Major-General Donald Ryder, reflects what other senior officers have described as a deep concern among some US officers and officials in Iraq over the refusal of top US commanders in Baghdad to authorise the release of so-called security prisoners.

Some prisoners were held for interrogation at Abu Ghraib.
