Abuse judge may compel intel testimony; suspect admits he lied


The U.S. military judge hearing the Abu Ghraib abuse case said prosecutors had until Sept. 17 to file charges against top military intelligence commanders or he would consider forcing them to testify under a grant of immunity. Davis and the five other military police accused of abusing prisoners at the Baghdad prison insist they were following orders from military intelligence officers and civilian contractors.
