A court says Britain's top diplomat must reconsider his decision not to release secret documents that lawyers for a man detained in Guantanamo Bay say could prove their client was tortured.
The High Court says Foreign Secretary David Miliband has one week to review the decision.
The ruling issued Thursday applies to the case of Binyam Mohamed. The Ethiopian refugee moved to Britain when he was 15 and was captured in April 2002 in Pakistan.
Mohamed claims he spent 18 months in Morocco and was tortured there before being flown to an alleged CIA-run site in Afghanistan and later transferred to Guantanamo.
The United States accuses Mohamed of conspiring with al-Qaida leaders to attack civilians and commit other crimes.
