US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is urging President Barack Obama to forestall efforts aimed at releasing parts of confidential torture memos seen as 'damaging.'
According to US media, CIA is endeavoring to cover up large sections of a 2004 internal report that depicts officers administering "degrading" interrogation techniques to detainees held on suspicions of 'terror' activities.
The report acquired by a team under the leadership of former CIA inspector General John Helgerson indicates that United States trampled both international and domestic regulations concerning the application of torture methods to elicit information from captives in secret detention centers.
