July 8, 2004 | CID | ACLU-RDI 92
CID Report of investigation into detainee's allegations of abuse while in U.S. custody at Mosul Airport, Iraq, over three day period. The detainee claimed to have sustained a bruise to his left shoulder and scratched during his capture. Once in custody the doctor took photos of the shoulder injury sustained when being captured. The detainee was fingerprinted and dressed. While hooded and hands tied behind his back, he was placed in a cold small room, sprayed with cold water, and left for two to three days with no food or drink. He stated the guards would not let him sleep. He said they would do this by making him stand and playing loud music. The first night of his capture, he claims he was kicked and thrown against the wall several times by one or two unknown English speaking individuals. He was then transferred to the Military Police (MP) custody, where he was not abused. After three days in MP custody, he was taken back to the same room, hooded, cuffed, and left for 24 hours. He was not abused during this time. The investigation concluded insufficient evidence to prove/disprove allegations. "Special Agent in charge determined further of the investigation would be of little or no value. Remaining Leads: Witness interviews."
