Around a dozen men, who accused British security forces of colluding in their torture overseas, are to get millions in compensation from the UK government.
Some of the men, who are all British citizens or residents, were detained at the Guantanamo Bay prison camp in Cuba.

Apparently their claims aren't being contested as that'd very likely cost more than compensating them and would expose the security services to too much public scrutiny. If that's true, where does it leave us if/when more people come out of the woodwork claiming torture at British hands or the complicity of MI5/MI6?
