Britain’s part in torture and rendition is still kept hidden 15 years after 9/11

Even as the Chilcot Report published in July 2016 lays bare the story of the United Kingdom's decision to join in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, a veil is still drawn over another dark aspect of Britain’s partnership with George W Bush’s administration.

For years now, the British state has barely acknowledged its alleged deep involvement in the abuse of terror suspects, and there has been very little in the way of justice for the victims of torture and 'rendition' – the practice of abducting suspects without due legal process and transferring them to other countries or territories for interrogation.
