The New York Times > Washington > Prisoners: New F.B.I. Files Describe Abuse of Iraq Inmates: "One of the memorandums released Monday was addressed to Robert S. Mueller III, the F.B.I. director, and other senior bureau officials, and it provided the account of someone 'who observed serious physical abuses of civilian detainees' in Iraq. The memorandum, dated June 24 this year, was an 'Urgent Report,' meaning that the sender regarded it as a priority. It said the witness 'described that such abuses included strangulation, beatings, placement of lit cigarettes into the detainees' ear openings and unauthorized interrogations.'"
