Crimes in Iraq

The POWs Controversy

Even after the Anglo/American war in Iraq ended, the treatment of Prisoners of war remains a controversial issue.

Kelly Tilford - a British shop assistant in a photo processing shop - was horrified when she saw pictures of Iraqi POWs being tortured. Those pictures were brought to her by a British soldier who participated in the war in Iraq.

Acting out of duty, Kelly called the police and spoke out to express her horror at what she saw.
