Although this douesn't appear to be the work of military inteligence (if that's not a contradiction in terms) during conflict, sometimes you need to find out answers. And sometimes you don't get answers just by asking someone a question.

That doesn't give carte blanche to anyone who feels like abusing a prisoner, but I think we don't yet know the full story enough to comment properly.
That's true to a point, but not the case here. You don't extract information from an unwilling informant, by writing a rude word on him. Even the eletroc-torture/feigning sex/large amount of soldiers watching are all heavily tilted towards humilation. That is just not a viable method of interrogation. This seems like it is for their own amusement, and clearly should be punished severely.

Anyone else do a double-take when they read the ring-leader was a woman? I thought men were supposed to be the evil gender.
