WASHINGTON, Aug. 25 (UPI) -- Recently released documents show harsh questioning of suspected terrorists provided significant information on al-Qaida, former Vice President Dick Cheney said.
Cheney released a written statement on the documents that became public Monday, including a 2004 report from the CIA inspector general, CNN reported.
"The documents released Monday clearly demonstrated the individuals subjected to enhanced interrogation techniques provided the bulk of intelligence we gained about al-Qaida," Cheney said. "This intelligence saved lives and prevented terrorist attacks."
Cheney also said the Obama administration's decision to have a federal prosecutor investigate possible criminal violations during interrogators is wrong.
