Britons 'faced torture' in Pakistan.







Britons 'faced torture' in Pakistan
The Government has been accused of "doing nothing" to help two British citizens who were allegedly tortured by Pakistani police in a bid to extract confessions from them.

Naheem Hussain, 24, and Rehan Zaman, 25, are currently being held in a Pakistani jail where they face execution after being arrested in 2004.




Human rights group Reprieve said the men, both from Birmingham, were "brutally tortured" in order for confessions to be gained and called for the Foreign Office to immediately step in and come to their aid.
Reprieve said Mr Zaman, Mr Hussain and his father, Fazal, 56, underwent "medieval" torture at the hands of the police to obtain false confessions.
The trio were arrested in June 2004 following a land dispute in Kashmir which resulted in two people being shot.
Fazal Hussain told a press conference in central London that the police tortured the three men for 13 days, demanded money and then still demanded confessions.
Mr Hussain said his family had gone to the British authorities for help shortly after the arrests, but it had not been forthcoming.
He escaped back to the UK after being released on bail after becoming dangerously ill following the alleged torture.
Clive Stafford Smith, from Reprieve, said: "What we've heard today is another story of horrific torture, but this is in a different setting.
"We are not talking about this so-called war on terror - this is two young British lads who were tortured by the Pakistani police into giving a false statement in a death penalty case. It's very clear that the British Government needs to intervene immediately and with great vigour to make sure that these guys get treated fairly and brought home to Britain in another way."
