Powell: No torture at hell camp

"US Secretary of State Colin Powell last night denied claims by a British prisoner at [sic] Guantanamo Bay that he was badly treated. Freed Jamal al-Harith, 37, claimed Camp Delta detainees were shackled for up to 15 hours, tortured and abused for confessions.

"Mr Powell insisted: 'I think that's unlikely. It is not in the American tradition to treat people in that manner.' Source
