Bahrain: Ex-Prisoners Denounce Britain’s ‘Torture Apparatus’ by Finian Cunningham http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=23619

One of the released detainees, Abduljalil al-Singace, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Bahrain, said: “The British government bears a heavy responsibility for the repression in Bahrain. What we have here is an apparatus of torture that was formed and instructed by British security personnel.”Many detainees and opposition spokesmen believe that British personnel continue to be involved in the policies and practices of Bahrain’s secret police, the Security and Intelligence Service. They point out that the methods of interrogation are “identical” to those used during the 1970s, 80s and 90s when the SIS was headed by Ian Henderson, a British police officer, who is believed to still reside in Bahrain and acts as a personal advisor to the king.
