WASHINGTON (AP) — A Senate panel appears likely to demand the release of a contentious torture report that has sharply divided lawmakers and the CIA, as two centrist senators joined the push Wednesday for a summary of the review to be declassified.
In a joint statement, Maine Sens. Susan Collins and Angus King said the still-classified Senate intelligence committee investigation would show the CIA tortured some terror detainees in its war on terror after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. And they accused the agency of mismanaging its “enhanced interrogation program.”
