US to plan new prison in Afghanistan
The Pentagon is all set to build a new 40-acre prison complex on the main US military base in Afghanistan. This will ease the pressure on the Bagram military base, which already has 630 inmates.
US officials also acknowledged the fact that there are grave health risks to detainees as well as US military personnel who work at the Bagram prison as they are continuously exposed to heavy metals from the aircraft-repair machinery and asbestos.
