A former senior diplomat with Canada's mission in Afghanistan says all detainees transferred by Canadian forces to Afghan prisons were likely tortured by Afghan officials. Appearing before a House of Commons committee Wednesday, Richard Colvin blasted Canadian detainee policies. Colvin said unlike the British and Dutch, Canada did not monitor their conditions, took days, weeks or even months to notify the Red Cross and, to prevent scrutiny, Canadian Forces concealed this behind "walls of secrecy." Colvin said: "As I learned more about our detainee practices, I came to the conclusion ..they were .. counterproductive and probably illegal.” Colvin said he began informing the Canadian Forces and Foreign Affairs officials about the detainee situation in 2006 with verbal and written reports. By April 2007, he was receiving written messages from government officials telling him in future not to put things on paper, but use the telephone instead
