Iraq torture photos found in desecrated cemetery
Adel Zaanoun | Gaza City

10 May 2004 17:29

Pictures of Iraqi prisoners being abused by United States troops and vengeful inscriptions were found on desecrated graves of British soldiers of World War I in Gaza City, the cemetery curator said on Monday.

"Eight to 10 men smashed 32 tombstones on Sunday night," said Issam Jaradah, who is in charge of the northern Gaza City cemetery's maintenance.

Some of the infamous pictures depicting scenes of mistreatment inside the US-run Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq were found stuck on the tombs, some of which also bore the Nazi swastika and the inscription "Revenge" in English, Jaradah said.

He said that he and his father prevented the vandals, some of whom were armed, from desecrating more of the tombs in the Gaza War cemetery.
