UK Court Rules that British Government Must Provide Gitmo Defendant With Evidence of His Own Torture

This is good news from a legal perspective, but it bothers me, because the circumstances are so Kafkaesque:

A British court ruled on Thursday that the government must disclose evidence to a defendant being held at Guantanamo Bay, a decision that carried with it implicit criticism of U.S. government detention policies.

In its ruling, the High Court said Britain's Foreign Office must provide Binyam Mohamed, a British resident detained in Pakistan in 2002 and now held at Guantanamo, with information relating to his time in detention.

His lawyers say the material supports his claim to have been "extraordinarily rendered", tortured and forced into a confession on terrorism charges.
