[originaltext] In a report released in Geneva, the UN investigators say harsh

In a report released in Geneva, the UN investigators say harsh conditions, including solitary confinement, stripping detainees naked, subjecting them to severe temperatures and force-feeding hunger strikers violate international law. The report calls for the United States to bring all the detainees to trial or release them. In a tele phone interview with VOA from London, co-author of the report Paul Hunt said the facility should be closed immediately. "There are a large number of people subject to arbitrary detention in Guantanamo Bay, and they have been there for some years. In accordance with international human rights law, they should be allowed to challenge the lawfulness of their detention before independent judicial body." White House spokesman Scott McClellan says the report appears to be a rehash of allegations made by lawyers for some of the detainees.
