Metropolitan Police officers subjected suspects to waterboarding, according to allegations at the centre of a major anti-corruption inquiry, The Times has learnt.

The torture claims are part of a wide-ranging investigation which also includes accusations that officers fabricated evidence and stole suspects’ property. It has already led to the abandonment of a drug trial and the suspension of several police officers.

This case involved a pot bust. Soon torture of "suspects" for any offense will become standard operating procedure for police everywhere.

The British police have a history of torturing suspects.
