Other former detainees have alleged similar mistreatment by MI5 and MI6 agents, including torture.[1][37] Seven detainees filed suit against the British government over their mistreatment and torture. In November 2010, the British government settled the suit, paying the detainees millions of pounds in compensation.[38][39][40][41] Aamer is also on the compensation list and part of the deal, but details are not known as most of the deal is still secret.[42][43]
