A high level Army review into interrogation practices in Iraq says there is no evidence that prisoner abuse by U S military police or intelligence officers is widespread. The investigation continues and six soldiers face possible courts martial while officials stress it is not a criminal probe of last fall’s Army Reserve MP company abuses. General Myers backs the conclusion that abuse is not widespread.
