Bradley Manning sits for ten months without trial in a military prison in the U.S. state of Virginia. His lawyer is criticizing the conditions of detention there and accused the authorities of having abused his client. Manning was "no explanation" his clothes were removed, and he had to endure at night for seven hours naked in his cell, David Coombs said on Thursday (local time) in his blog.
"This degrading treatment is inexcusable and unjustifiable," said Coombs. "It is a disgrace for our military justice system." Manning was the same treatment then threatened again. Manning's legal representatives had recently lodged a complaint against the prison conditions of the 23-year-old who transfer hundreds of thousands of secret documents to the unveiling of Portal WikiLeaks is suspected.
He stood unnecessarily under the highest security and special surveillance, said Coombs. Accordingly Manning for the prevention of self-injury under the permanent control, every five minutes, a guard looks at him. Meanwhile, the U.S. military, the indictment against Manning has expanded.
To 22 points. Be the worst accusations of weight "collaboration with the enemy", the U.S. NBC television network reported Wednesday, citing military sources. If convicted, he faces the death penalty here. The military prosecutor but I already made it clear that they are not the maximum sentence would require.
The Department of Defense maintains Manning for a traitor. The intelligence analyst had while serving in Iraq have access to hundreds of thousands of confidential documents. Officially, the military raised so far only had a charge of a video, with the WikiLeaks attracted worldwide attention because it was a brutal, deadly helicopter attack on civilians.

To be published in June last year in Iraq arrested Analyst captured on a Marine base in Virginia. He may leave his cell for only an hour a day. The WikiLeaks-founder Ian Assange described Manning as "heroes." If the suspicions are true, the 23-year-old U.S. soldier, an "unprecedented hero" was said on Thursday Assange the British broadcaster ITV News.
