A U.S judge declared a mistrial in a civil lawsuit against CACI, a United States military contractor that was responsible for employees who engaged in torture at Abu Ghraib.
Iraqi torture survivors who have pursued the lawsuit for nearly 16 years intend to seek another trial.
“We might not have received justice yet in our just case today, but what is more important is that we made it to trial and spoke up so the world could hear from us directly,” declared Salah Al-Ejaili, a reporter for Al Jazeera who was detained at Abu Ghraib for six weeks.
“This will not be the final word,” Al-Ejaili added. "What happened in Abu Ghraib is engraved into our memories and will never be forgotten in history. Every just person stands with us.”
