Another detainee described how US soldiers forced him and several other detainees to form a human pyramid.

Al-Zayiadi described how he was forced to stand on a box wearing only a blanket and a hood with electric wires sticking out of his body, in what has become one of the iconic photographs of the prisoner-abuse scandal.
