Following what I heard from Lord [Johan van Zyl] Steyn, one of the United Kingdom's 12 Law Lords, that the treatment of prisoners in Guantanamo Bay is "a monstrous failure of justice," I went back to what I have collected on this topic over the past year or so.
In light of this, Lord Steyn's opinion was not the only one.
Steyn described the military tribunal for trying the detainees as a "kangaroo court." The term, he said, implied "a pre-ordained arbitrary rush to judgment by an irregular tribunal which makes a mockery of justice."

By doing so, Van Rensburg* secured the lead in the King of The Mountains Competition, and therefore was the leader of all three jersey classifications on the road.

Travelling with a delegation arranged by Ebo administrator Gualberto Lanjendra, a former Unita fighter, Van Zyl initially found nothing and was about to return home - but then an old village headman said he remembered a plane coming down during the war.
The overgrown crash site, barely 400m away, lay in another district, however, and it was only on July 11 that Van Zyl and the delegation could get permission to visit it in the company of some locals who 30 years ago buried the dead men.
"Nearly nothing remained of the aircraft," Van Zyl said this week - but there remained "a heap of earth where the three soldiers from the aircraft were buried in one grave".
