Summary

“Mr. Craig Murray, former UK ambassador to Uzbekistan, has told to Mainichi that “US and UK have utilized, or admitted to use, the information which have been obtained by torture”. In addition, he asserted that the opinion of then a legal advisor for the UK government was; “receiving or possessing information under torture does not create any offense against the UN convention on Torture”. Mr. Murray has testified at the Council of Europe with having submitted the documents which confirm these remarks. He also points out that, according to his experience in Uzbekistan, while US might not construct any “secret prison” in European Continent, it seems to be quite probable that US would hand over these suspects to the third countries.”
