In a statement, Adalah said: "While in custody, volunteers were subjected to mistreatment, punitive measures, and aggressive treatment, and two volunteers were held for some period of time in solitary confinement."
Shona Robison has put off decisions about her medium-term plans until she sees Rachel Reeves' spending review and the impact it has on Holyrood's day-to-day and capital spending.The Scottish finance secretary is due to update MSPs by the end of June on how she uses it, including a priority list of capital projects.
These include high-profile road upgrades in the Highlands and Aberdeenshire, and the stalled programme for building NHS National Treatment Centres.She faces competing demands to improve the buildings and IT in public services and, on the other hand, improving economic infrastructure such as roads and rail, with a more direct impact on economic growth.She also has the challenge of either cutting some public services or reforming them in such a way that they can be provided more efficiently.
This spending review may be of major significance for public services for years to come.Or it may be replaced by annual budgets, as we've seen in the past, making different decisions depending on funds available and political pressure.
The announcement in the Commons later is only the start of the process of putting those funds to work.
An urgent search is being carried out to find a teenager's support dog who has been missing in the Highlands for two weeks.In the mid-90s there was no treatment for people living with HIV, and Porter says the documentary along with the quilt highlights "the breadth of devastation" caused by the disease.
Karin Hindsbo, Tate Modern director, says the quilt is "an incredible feat of creative human expression" and believes it will be a "deeply moving experience" for those who come to see it.Hundreds of thousands of people are "slowly starving" in Kenyan refugee camps after US funding cuts reduced food rations to their lowest ever levels, a United Nations official has told the BBC.
The impact is starkly visible at a hospital in the sprawling Kakuma camp in the north-west of the East African nation. It is home to roughly 300,000 refugees who have fled strife in countries across Africa and the Middle East.Emaciated children fill a 30-bed ward at Kakuma's Amusait Hospital, staring blankly at visitors as they receive treatment for severe acute malnutrition.
