Binyam Mohamed's brother on feeling betrayed

Lou Birt - Programme Editor | 09:46 AM, Thursday, 5 February 2009

Binyam MohamedOur programme's reporter Gavin Lee has been talking to the brother of the man at the centre of the row over torture at Guantanamo Bay.

Binyam Mohamed's been held at Guantanamo for four years after being accused by the U.S authorities of planning terrorist attack. He alleges he was tortured while he was questioned in Pakistan, Morocco and Afghanistan.

Yesterday, two High Court judges said they were forced to suppress evidence of the allegations about Binyam Mohamed.

They claim the USA had threatened to withdrew intelligence sharing with the UK, if the evidence was made public

Binyam's brother Dr Benhur Mohamed told Gavin he believes the Foreign Secretary has failed to protect their human rights and how he felt about the evidence of his brother's alleged torture being blocked.
