COPENHAGEN (AFP) - Two Danish paramedics have reported seeing the results of abusive treatment inflicted by British soldiers on two Iraqis, one of whom was said to have died as a result of injuries sustained during questioning, the Danish defence ministry announced.


The assistant nurses were working in the British military hospital in Iraq (news - web sites)'s southern capital Basra when they were asked to treat the two Iraqis who had been brought to the hospital after allegedly enduring brutal treatment at the hand of their British interrogators.


One of the Iraqis later succumbed to his injuries, according to the Danish witnesses.


The Danish paramedics had reported the matter to a Danish army legal adviser but news of the incident only reached the Danish Defence Ministry on Thursday, the ministry said.
