Marines tell of Iran hell
EIGHT Royal Navy servicemen today break their silence — and reveal the true horror of their kidnap ordeal in Iran. They were snatched at gunpoint four weeks ago during a routine mission on the Shatt-al-Arab waterway border with Iraq. It was claimed at the time they had been well treated and only arrested for trespassing. But the men reveal: They endured a mock execution. They were violently abducted — even though they did NOT stray into Iranian waters. They were humiliated and paraded blindfolded like zoo animals. They were kept in horrific jail conditions and faced sickening mind games. The men spoke out to protect their professional reputations. Marine David Reid, 24, said: "It was unbearable and people have a right to know." The men arrived safely back in Britain last week. Posted by: Anonymous2U 2004-07-22 |
