Email to NCIS from Deputy Assistant Director, Counterterrorism Department re: Allegations of Detainee Abuse at Guantanamo Bay

Aug. 2, 2004 | NCIS | ACLU-RDI 554
The Deputy Assistant Director of the NCIS Counterterrorism Department reports on possible cases of abuse that might be referred to NCIS. The Deputy Assistant Director received a call from the Criminal Investigation Task Force (CITF) regarding three incidents in which FBI agents reported to have observed detainee abuse at Guantanamo Bay. Two incidents were witnessed from an observation room; it was unclear how the third was witnessed. It does not appear that the Navy was involved and no CITF or NCIS personnel were thought to have witnessed the abuse. "One incident involve[d] an enlisted member (probably Army), another a DIA employee named [redacted] and the third, a dog and a detainee #63."
