As part of our work on detentions in the War on Terror, Cageprisoners has been charting the complicity of various governments around the world in order to determine their culpability and responsibility to help those who have been denied due process. In the course of our findings a startling level of cooperation was witnessed between the governments of Pakistan, the United States of America and the United Kingdom, particularly between their intelligence agencies.
With almost two thirds of those in Guantanamo Bay having been kidnapped from Pakistan rather than the battlefield of Afghanistan, it was assumed that such figures were as bad as complete picture could possibly reveal itself to be. However, during the course of our investigation in Pakistan it has emerged that number of those being held in secret detention from Pakistan go into the thousands.
