Newly released illustrations drawn this year by Guantanamo Bay detainee Abu
Zubaydah depict in graphic detail how he was tortured in 2002 at a Central
Intelligence Agency detention "black site," according to his civilian lawyer.
关塔那摩湾拘留者阿布·祖拜达（Abu Zubaydah）今年绘制的最新插图，详细描绘了他在
2002年如何在CIA拘留所“黑场”遭受酷刑。
The illustrations were released in a report written by Zubaydah's lawyer,
Seton Hall University School of Law Professor Mark Denbeaux and some of his
students. The New York Times first published the pictures.

报告中发布[注]。 《纽约时报》首先发布了这些图片。

The report, titled "How America Tortures," describes the treatment Zubaydah
and others endured. The Bush administration maintained the treatment was not
torture, calling it instead "enhanced interrogation techniques."
这份名为“美国如何刑求”的报告描述了祖拜达和其他人所遭受的待遇。小布什政府认为
这种待遇不是酷刑，而是称其为“增强的讯问手段”。
The program was approved by the Bush Administration in the aftermath of the
September 11, 2001 attacks, as counterterrorism officials tried to obtain
information about possible future attacks.
该计划在911 事件发生后得到了小布什政府的批准，当时反恐官员试图获得有关未来可能
发生的袭击事件的信息。
According to a Senate Intelligence report, Zubaydah was waterboarded at least
83 times. The 2014 report on the CIA's detention and interrogation program
said that he at one point became "completely unresponsive, with bubbles
rising through his open, full mouth."
根据参议院情报报告，祖拜达至少被水刑了83次。 2014年CIA拘留和审讯计划的报告中说
，他在某一时刻变得“完全无反应，气泡从他张开的大口中冒出来。”
The images included in the newly released report depict Zubaydah, an alleged
al Qaeda operative who was captured in 2002 in Pakistan and put into CIA
custody, in distress, either naked or lightly clothed, often forced into
contorted positions, confined to tight spaces, or with his arms shackled
above his head.
新发布的报告中包含祖贝达的描绘图像（Zubaydah），他被指控是基地组织的一名特工，
于2002年在巴基斯坦被捕。被CIA羁押时，他承受痛苦，被迫衣不避体或完全赤裸，他们
常常被迫扭曲身体，禁闭于狭窄空间，或双臂上镣铐高举过头。
In a statement, Denbeaux said, "with this report, he is silent no more."
Denbeaux在一份声明中说：“有了这份报告，他不再保持沉默。”
One drawing depicts a technique described in the report as "walling." In it,
Zubaydah appears to be standing naked and shackled, while another man, whose
face is hidden, appears to be holding something around Zubaydah's neck and
slamming Zubaydah's head into a wall.
一幅图描绘了报告中称为“撞墙”的一种技术。在里面，祖拜达裸身着脚铐站着，而施刑
者的脸被隐藏起来，一手抓着挂在祖拜达脖子上的东西，另一手推祖拜达的头撞墙。
The CIA declined to comment on the newly released material.
中情局拒绝对这些新发布的材料发表评论。
That technique is consistent with what ex-CIA psychologist John "Bruce"
Jessen admitted to doing to Zubaydah in his 2016 legal response to a criminal
complaint by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Jessen said he
"placed a rolled up towel behind Zubaydah's neck and 'walled' him three or
four times." The ACLU alleged Jessen and another ex-CIA psychologist, James
Elmer Mitchell, were behind "an experimental torture program for the U.S.
Central Intelligence Agency." Both men denied they had committed torture or
cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment, but admitted they used techniques
many consider to be torture. President Obama banned some so-called
"extraordinary interrogation techniques" in 2009, such as waterboarding.
该技术与中情局前心理学家约翰·杰森（John“ Bruce” Jessen）在2016年对美国公民
自由联盟（ACLU）提起的刑事诉讼的法律回应中承认对祖拜达做的行为一致。杰森说，他
“将一条卷起的毛巾放在祖拜达的脖子上，再将他撞墙三四下”。美国公民自由联盟（
ACLU）称杰森（Jessen）和另一位前中央情报局心理学家詹姆斯·埃尔默·米切尔（
James Elmer Mitchell）支持“美国中央情报局的实验性酷刑计划”。两人均否认曾实施
酷刑或残忍，不人道和有辱人格的待遇，但承认他们使用了许多被视为酷刑的技术。欧巴
马总统在2009年禁止了某些所谓的“非常规审讯技术”，例如水刑。
Walling involves an individual being "quickly and firmly pushed into the
wall," according to CIA documents declassified in 2016.
根据CIA在2016年解密的文件，” 撞墙”刑求 涉及一个人被“迅速而坚定地推向围墙”
。
The report quotes Zubaydah describing one of his walling sessions: "I fell
down on the floor with each banging. I felt for few instants that I was
unable to see anything, let alone the short chains that prevented me from
standing tall. And every time I fell he would drag me with the towel which
caused bleeding on my neck."
报告引用了祖拜达描述他的一次” 撞墙”刑求的内容：“每次撞击我都倒在地板上。我
顿时感到自己什么也看不见，任由让我站不直的短链铐著。每次我跌倒了，他会用毛巾拖
曳我，导致我的脖子流血。”
There has been a lot of debate about how important a figure Zubaydah was in
al Qaeda. Zubaydah, according to government prosecutors. "played a key role
in al Qaeda's communications with supporters and operatives abroad and
closely interacted with al Qaeda's second in command at the time." The US
government has also alleged after the September 11 attacks he played a more
active role in attack planning. At a 2016 hearing his military attorney said
Zubaydah had no interest in harming the US or any other country.
关于祖拜达在基地组织中的重要性有很多争论。据政府检察官说，祖拜达 “在基地组织
与国外支持者和特工的联络中发挥了关键作用，并与当时基地组织的第二指挥官密切互动
。”美国政府还声称，在911袭击事件发生后，他在袭击计划中发挥了更加积极的作用。
在2016年的一次听证会上，他的军事律师表示，祖拜达对伤害美国或任何其他国家没有兴
趣。
Other illustrations depict Zubaydah in what the report calls "stress
positions," both standing and sitting, allegedly to create "physical
pressure."
在报告中，其他一些插图描绘了祖拜达为站立和坐着的“受迫姿势”刑求，据称会造成“
身体压力”。
Another drawing depicts what the report refers to as "wall standing," showing
Zubaydah with his arms shackled above his head as he stands on his toes, "to
induce extreme pain, sleep deprivation, and mental anguish when used to
extremes." The report quotes Zubaydah saying he "passed out" in that
position, and felt his hands became "paralyzed or severed."
另一幅图描绘了该报告所称的“靠墙站立” 刑求，显示祖拜达被迫用脚趾站立，胳膊铐
在头上方，“过于激烈时会引起极端的疼痛，睡眠不足和精神痛苦”。报告援引祖拜达的
话说，他在那样的姿势下“昏倒了”，并感到他的手变得“瘫痪或被切断了”。
Several drawings depict Zubaydah confined to cramped boxes of various sizes,
which the report quotes him as saying made him "scream unconsciously" from
the pain from trying to keep his body contorted to fit in the box.
几幅图描绘了祖拜达被局限在各种大小的狭窄箱子中，报告援引他的话说，是让他因试图
扭曲身体以适应箱子的痛苦而“不自觉地尖叫”。
One illustration depicts Zubaydah undergoing the infamous water boarding
technique, strapped to a table with water pouring on a cloth over his face,
in order to simulate drowning, according to the report, which quotes Zubaydah
as saying, "I felt I was going to die from drowning."
有一个插图描绘了祖拜达经历了臭名昭著的水刑技术，他被绑在桌子上，脸上盖著布，水
浇在布上，以模拟溺水。报告引用祖拜达的话说”我感觉快被淹死了。”

延伸阅读：首位遭美反恐刑求被害人 素描揭CIA酷刑样貌
中央社
https://www.cna.com.tw/news/firstnews/201912050185.aspx
（中央社纽约4日综合外电报导）美国当年为反恐，在海外一些秘密处所对恐攻疑犯酷刑
逼供。当年第一位尝到水刑等多种酷刑的受害者，今年将亲身所受的刑求画出，收录于一
本探讨美国如何严刑拷问的报告内。
现年48岁、被人称为朱贝达（Abu Zubaydah）的男子在关达那摩湾（Guatanamo Bay）画
出酷刑素描，供他的律师、同时也是西藤山大学（Seton Hall University）法学院教授
丹博（Mark P.Denbeaux）与部分指导学生合著的“美国如何刑求”（How America
Tortures，暂译）61页报告收录。
●首尝美酷刑 当事人画出亲身经历
朱贝达2002年3月在巴基斯坦一场枪战时被捕，他当时受严重枪伤，并被送至美国中央情
报局（CIA）的海外监狱网络。他是第一个尝过中情局水刑的人，共遭水刑83次，也是第
一个尝到被关入小型禁闭箱的人。
但事后情报分析显示，尽管朱贝达是圣战士，但911恐攻他事前并不知情，当时也非盖达
组织（Al Qaeda）成员；他也从未被起诉犯罪，法庭公布的文件显示，军事检察官根本无
意起诉他。
朱贝达在每幅素描里，描绘他所谓于2002年8月在泰国一处CIA秘密处所内受到的特殊刑求
伎俩。丹博教授的报告采用第一手描述、政府内部备忘录、受刑人回忆录及参议院2014年
分析刑求的专案报告。当初朱贝达被误成盖达高干，刑求计画起初是为他设立。
●水刑（waterboarding）
朱贝达在素描里描绘自己全裸被绑于板上，被人蒙着头后向他的脸灌水；他的素描还有一
个地方是过去所未揭露－头躺的地方有个绞炼能让犯人头后仰以便水能倾注。他曾描述说
“他们不断灌水，全都集中在我的口鼻，直到我觉得快溺毙，我当时因缺氧觉得胸腔都快
爆开了”。
●受迫姿势（stress position）
朱贝达画出，他全身赤裸、手腕高举过头铐在监狱栅栏，被迫得踮起脚尖，并形容“我以
这个姿势站立好几个小时，狱卒看到我的手变白才会让我坐到椅子”。
●屈身上铐（short shackling）
朱贝达画出自己被套头、以宛如腹中胎儿的姿势铐住四肢，然后被铁链绑在牢房栅栏限制
行动。
●撞墙 （walling）
素描里，朱贝达画出狱卒一手以毛巾围着他的脖子并拉紧，另一手推他的头撞向水泥墙上
所垫的木墙。
朱贝达形容“他不断推我的头撞墙，每次都会有那么一瞬间眼睛一黑”，当他跌坐地面上
，狱卒会把他拽起，造成他的脖子流血，然后赏他耳光。
●大小禁闭箱（confinement box）
素描显示在大禁闭箱里，朱贝达被剃光头、裸身手脚上铐，坐在一个可当马桶的桶子上，
“置身黑暗里，只能坐在桶上，空间极为狭窄”。他形容被拘于一个看似木制棺材的一个
大木箱，一个守卫将木箱竖直，并说“从现在起这就是你的家”。
至于小禁闭箱，朱贝达形容犹如狗笼，“当他们把我锁进去后，我尽我所能想坐起，但一
点办法都没有，箱子太短了，我想屈身但也很困难，因为太窄了”。他就这样被迫以腹中
胎儿的姿势铐在箱里，“这太痛苦了，逼得我无意识地尖叫”。
●剥夺睡眠（sleep deprivation）
朱贝达忆及，中情局干员将他平躺或平趴地面铐住四肢，用痛苦的姿势让他无法睡觉；他
说这种剥夺睡眠一搞就是两、三周甚至更久，“我感觉仿佛永无止尽，当我觉得快睡着时
，守卫就用水泼醒我”。
