A military
company connected to the US interrogators at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and
Guantanamo Bay camp is behind a finger-printing system used in British
schools. VeriCool, which runs fingerprint registration and cashless school
lunch systems in 22 UK schools, is part of Anteon, an American company
which provides training and technology for the US military.
Anteon has the contract to run specialist courses on topics including interrogation and counter-intelligence at Fort Huachuca in Arizona, headquarters of the US Army Intelligence Center. The company, recently bought by a larger defence business, General Dynamics Information Technology, has been accused of training interrogators who worked at the detention centre in Guantanamo Bay.
