A US federal judge dismissed Wednesday a complaint by the families of two Guantanamo detainees who alleged the men's deaths in 2006 had been covered up when the Pentagon ruled them as suicides.
When three detainees at Guantanamo Bay were found hanged in their cells on June 9, 2006, the official explanation was suicide. Human rights attorney Scott Horton, however, believes that "clearly these were homicides."
