No, not by U.S. forces. Witnesses in Saddam's trial recounted harrowing torture at the notorious prison by the dictators henchmen, Reuters reports.
One female witness said she was stripped naked, given electric shocks and beaten.
Oh well, at least they didn't take pictures of her -- that would have been humiliating.
Others talked of being confined in horrible conditions. Many testified behind screens and used voice modulators to conceal their identifies, fearful of reprisals.
Saddam, meanwhile, whined that the trial is unfair and told the judges to go to hell.
"You first," I'm sure they were all thinking.
