Guantanamo Bay prisoner files abuse claim

Jailers at Guantanamo Bay beat a Bosnian detainee so badly he suffered facial paralysis and repeatedly flushed his head in a toilet until he nearly drowned, claims a suit filed against the Bush Administration in the US District Court in Boston.

The suit said the beatings were inflicted on Algerian-born detainee Mustafa Ait Idir, who has been held as an "enemy combatant" without charges since January 2002.
