- Investigation initiated after Military Police (MP) sent memo to CID re two detainees who related physical abuse in two separate instances: one by two unidentified Iraqi National Guard (ING) soldiers and two unknown U.S. soldiers, and the second by ING only. Detainees were captured by ING and transported to 3-156 INF BN for processing, before being sent to the Brigade Interrogation Facility (BIF), Camp Cooke. Detainees were medically examined upon arrival at BIF and photographs were taken of injuries. An agent witnessed that first detainee had bruising on shoulders and upper torso; darkened eyes; welts on back "that had the imprint of a rifle barrel"; and that "other welts indicated a club." Other detainee's "eyes were blackened and the left side of his face was completely blue and very swollen."
