BBC News reports that the police are to investigate MI5 complicity in the torture claims of Binyam Mohamed.

Two weeks before starting a criminal investigation into torture claims does seem a little on the slow side.

I would hope that the West Yorkshire Police would be  a little quicker off the mark if I was to report being kidnapped, flown illegally across the world and tortured in numerous locations.

On the plus side; its good to see some action taking place.

On the minus side; lets hope somebody hasn’t spent the last fortnight stood in front of the office shredder.
