CAIRO - General Adel el-Mursi, head of Egypt's military judiciary, said that he had ordered a “swift investigation” into a video widely circulated on the internet appearing to show police and military officers in the Delta city of Daqahliya torturing two detainees while they were being interrogated. "The Military Prosecutor recieved several complaints against the torture incident by policemen and soldiers. Also the media reports on the same incident are considered a complaint, leading to a swift investigation," a military official told the official Middle East News Agency (MENA). He added that the military could not accept such violations of human rights no matter who is responsible. The video showing the torture of detained ‘thugs' in a police station caused an outcry earlier this week, with activists fearing Mubarak-era torture techniques are once again being widely used to extract confessions from suspects.
