Iraq Red Cross Report Describes Systemic Abuse in Iraq By Peter Slevin Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, May 10, 2004; 4:12 PM U.S. forces in Iraq often arrested Iraqis without good reason, routinely used excessive force in the early hours of captivity and abused some prisoners for months to extract information from them, the International Committee of the Red Cross told the Bush administration earlier this year. The treatment of prisoners who were considered valuable intelligence sources or were suspected in attacks against U.S. forces was sometimes "tantamount to torture," the Geneva-based organization wrote in a February report made public today. Military intelligence officers told Red Cross monitors that 70 to 90 percent of captives in Iraq last year had been arrested by mistake, the report stated. Some Iraqi families roamed the country for weeks trying to uncover the fate of their imprisoned relatives, who had disappeared into the military detention apparatus. The Red Cross, which sent investigators to 14 detention centers run by the U.S.-led coalition, also documented eight cases in which Iraqi inmates were shot by American guards between April and November 2003. Seven prisoners died and 18 were injured.

International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) American Red Cross, Coastal Bend-Texas Chapter ICRC visits Saddam Hussein Fundamental Principles of ICRC Why Red Cross is visiting ... Red Cross's Role ICRC to Visit Saddam Hussein The American Red Cross has received criticism regarding the decision of the International Committee of the Red Cross to visit Saddam Hussein. Visiting detainees is a unique function of the Geneva-based International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), which acts as an independent guardian of the Geneva Conventions . No other entity within the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including the American Red Cross, has that role or performs that function. The Geneva Conventions , which apply to all armed conflicts, require that all captured combatants or prisoners of war (POWs) be visited by the ICRC to help assure the world that their treatment is humane. For example, the ICRC visited the three American servicemen held in a Serbian prison during the Kosovo conflict and arranged for them to send messages to their families back home. During the Gulf War, the ICRC met with 55 U.S. POWs as well as POWs from the UK, France, Germany and Italy. Under humanitarian law, the ICRC talks with prisoners in private to discuss their treatment, to register them so their families and their government know where they are, and to give them the opportunity to write personal Red Cross Messages to their relatives. If there are any concerns that arise in the course of a visit, the ICRC will discuss them directly and confidentially with the detaining authorities only. The ICRC does not publicly discuss its findings, nor share confidential matters with other parts of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.
