| "This is a clear message that our governments must not be allowed to condone or encourage torture or subcontract torture to anyone else in the world. Torture, under any form, is morally repugnant and any association with it only weakens our efforts in the fight against terrorism. I welcome this ruling which is in line with the absolute prohibition of torture under the European Convention on Human Rights” - - - Terry Davis, Council of Europe Secretary General, on the British Law Lords decision against the use of evidence obtained by torture |
