LONDON (AP) — British police are seeking to interview Guantanamo Bay detainees as part of an investigation into allegations that one of the country's intelligence officials was complicit in the mistreatment of a terrorism suspect, a television station reported Friday.

Police have been investigating allegations that the MI6 officer was complicit in the mistreatment of a non-British citizen since Sept. 2009, when the agency reported the official to the government's chief legal adviser. She ruled that detectives should begin an inquiry.

The U.S. State Department did not immediately respond to an inquiry on the subject
Britain's government has announced a sweeping inquiry into the country's role in the "war on terror," which Foreign Secretary William Hague said was necessary to "clear the stain from our reputation as a country." The investigation, which won't seek evidence from the U.S. or other foreign allies, will begin once police conclude their inquiry into the actions of the MI6 officer.

Looks like the Brits have been paying out to former Detainees Settlements as well.....Thoughts? :-\

I don't think there's much chance of the US letting them do this, unless we are talking some real low level guys. It's one thing to share intel to prevent a terrorist attack, but I don't think US officials will go for it in the case of a human rights investigation.

Agreed plus Hague was saying it isnt going anywheres either.....The investigation, which won't seek evidence from the U.S. or other foreign allies, :-\

Sounds more like a PR move by the Brits than anything...they know nothing will come of it, just trying to make themselves look good.

Sounds like that to me too. Besides, I can think of far greater "stains" on Britain's reputation.
