‘Dirty wee torturers’: Northern Irish man tells of British army abuse during Troubles

Jim Auld, 72, was one of 14 hooded men' subjected to interrogation methods since ruled as torture

Jim Auld was so tortured by British army interrogators during the Troubles that he tried to kill himself. He survived but has never seen a counsellor or psychologist or psychiatrist, and never will.

I don't trust them that it wouldn't end up in a paper somewhere. I don't want the torturers learning from me so they can improve their techniques," he said last week.
