OIG Testimony – Statement of Glenn A. Fine, Inspector General, U.S. Department of Justice before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, Subcommittee on International Organizations, Human Rights, and Oversight concerning “The Role of the FBI at Guantanamo Bay,” June 4, 2008.

“FBI agents in Guantanamo and other military zones were faced with interrogators from other agencies who used more aggressive interrogation techniques. The FBI ultimately decided that it would not participate in joint interrogations of detainees with other agencies in which techniques not allowed by the FBI were used. Our investigation found that the vast majority of the FBI agents deployed in Guantanamo and the other military zones continued to adhere to FBI policies and separated themselves from other agencies’ interrogators who were using non-FBI-approved techniques. In only a few instances did FBI agents use techniques that would not normally be permitted in the United States or participate in interrogations during which such techniques were used by others.”
