U.S. UNVEILS EXTENDED BAGRAM PRISON

"... The new prison wing cost some $60 million to build... could hold up to 1,000 detainees, but was at present holding around 700 inmates, including 30 foreign prisoners... a former detainee at Bagram and Guantanamo Bay, said the Bagram prison resembled a concentration camp. "People were beaten, dragged, tortured in it..." an investigator of secret prisons and renditions from the human rights organisation, Reprieve, said Bagram is seen as "Guantanamo's lesser-known evil twin".
