Guantanamo detainee sues creators of CIA's harsh tactics

Attorneys for a detainee at Guantanamo Bay are suing the psychologists who created the CIA's harsh interrogation techniques used in the war on terror, aiming to compel them to provide information to Polish officials who are investigating a former CIA jail in that country.

The lawsuit was filed late last month in federal court in eastern Washington state and was announced Wednesday by the London-based human rights group Reprieve.

[...] the U.S. government could file a statement of interest in the case by the end of June, or advise that it will not participate in the case, the officials said.
