Английская Википедия:Church Report on detainee interrogation
The Church report on detainee interrogation and incarceration (officially Review of Department of Defense Detention Operations and Detainee Interrogation Techniques) is a report completed under the direction of Vice Admiral Albert T. Church, an officer in the United States Navy. Church was then the Naval Inspector General.
Church's mandate was to investigate the interrogation and incarceration of detainees in the United States "war on terror", in Afghanistan, Iraq and Guantanamo Bay. The inquiry was initiated on May 25, 2004.[1] A version of its report was finished on March 2, 2005 and published on March 11.
An unclassified 21-page executive summary has been circulated. The full 368-page report is classified.
Church and his staff interviewed 800 individuals, Washington policy-makers, Armed Services members, and allies of the United States. Human Rights Watch reports that the Church inquiry didn't interview any detainees.
Highlights
