BAGHDAD – Muntazer Al-Zaidi, the Iraqi television reporter jailed for throwing his shoes at former US president George W. Bush, was freed Tuesday and said he had been tortured with electric shocks and simulated drowning.
Zaidi had been behind bars ever since he shouted “it is the farewell kiss, you dog,” at Bush on Dec. 14 last year, seconds before hurling his size-10s at the man who ordered Iraq be invaded and occupied six and a
half years ago.
Speaking at the office of his former employer, Al-Baghdadia television, Zaidi –who was missing a front tooth – said: “I was tortured with electric shocks, beaten with cables.”
Denying, however, that he was a hero, he said he had been ashamed of the suffering he had seen in his country and and had seized the opportunity to insult the man he held responsible. He added: “For me it was a good response; what I wanted to do in throwing my shoes in the face of the criminal Bush was to express my rejection of his lies and of the occupation of my country.”
Zaidi added: “At the time that Prime Minister Nuri Al-Maliki said on television that he could not sleep
without being reassured on my fate ... I was being tortured in the worst ways, beaten with electric cables and iron bars.”
He said he wanted an apology from Maliki, adding that his guards had also used simulated drowning on him – the technique of water-boarding used by the Americans on suspects arrested over the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks.
“I am now free but my country is still captive. I am not a hero, but I have attitude and opinions,” he said. “I feel humiliated to see my country suffer, my Baghdad burning, and my people killed.”
Television pictures earlier showed the reporter, wearing a sash in the colors of the Iraqi national flag around his shoulders, and sporting sunglasses and a thick beard, being led into the studios of his employer.
The 30-year-old journalist’s family and friends ululated when they heard the news by telephone at their home in Baghdad. They have prepared a sheep for slaughter in celebration of his homecoming.
Zaidi was due to have been released on Monday but his brothers and sisters were left in tears when legal red tape delayed his homecoming.
Although the reporter’s prison time had expired, Iraqi inmates often find their liberty held up for several days to allow the necessary prison release documents to be signed and approved.
Zaidi was initially sentenced to three years for assaulting a foreign head of state but had his jail
time reduced to one year on appeal.
His sentence was cut further on account of good behavior. - AFP
