'Under the UK-US intelligence sharing agreement, the US and UK have taken a policy decision that they will get testimonies obtained under torture in third countries. I say that with regret and with certainty'. So said Craig Murray, ex-UK ambassador to Uzbekistan, to the temporary European Parliament committee on the alleged use of European countries by the CIA for illegal activities, 20 April 2006. MEPs also heard from EU counter-terrorism coordinator Gijs de Vries, Spanish journalist Matías Vallés and UN peacekeeper Edward Horgan.
