Apr. 8, 2004 | CID | ACLU-RDI 2468
Detainee alleged that he was abused while in custody of US forces at Camp Bucca. The detainee claims he was wrongly arrested, beaten, sexually assaulted and had his money ($160,000US) stolen. Once released, detainee filed a complaint with the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and told his story on Hardball with Chris Matthews. Investigation showed that there was no evidence to support the detainee's claims due to lack of evidence, lack of corroboration and gross inconsistencies in the telling of his account. The claims rested solely upon his verbal complaint, with no corroborating evidence to support allegations. The matter was determined to be unfounded. See RDI 2286.
