This report is so detailed, however, that if it's false it would be an enormous fraud...
They claim to have a sketch by Thomas V. Curtis, a Reserve M.P. sergeant, showing how Dilawar was chained to the ceiling of his cell.
They claim to actually have a copy of the Army report with all the details"
The story of Mr. Dilawar's brutal death at the Bagram Collection Point - and that of another detainee, Habibullah, who died there six days earlier in December 2002 - emerge from a nearly 2,000-page confidential file of the Army's criminal investigation into the case, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times.
The report also matches up with what the Red Cross says they reported and the officer in charge is the same one later at Abu Gharib.
The reaction of the Pentagon spokesman also makes it sound like there is substance to the report
"What we have learned through the course of all these investigations is that there were people who clearly violated anyone's standard for humane treatment," said the Pentagon's chief spokesman, Larry Di Rita. "We're finding some cases that were not close calls."
So my gut feeling is that there is substance here but I am reserving final judgment.
