A federal judge is allowing a lawsuit to proceed against an Arlington-based defense firm whose interrogators are accused of abusing detainees at the notorious Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq.


The judge allowed the case to proceed against CACI International, but dismissed a similar civil suit against Reston-based Titan - now known as L-3 Communications Titan Group. The firms provided interrogators or interpreters to assist U.S. military guards at Abu Ghraib. The prison served as the backdrop for pictures of grinning U.S. soldiers posing with detainees, some naked, being held on leashes or in painful and sexually humiliating positions.

ABC 7 News myTAKE - What's Your Opinion?Military investigators later concluded that much of the abuse happened in late 2003 when CACI and Titan's interrogators were at the prison.

The legal action was brought on behalf of hundreds of Iraqis who said they or their late husbands were abused by U.S. personnel at Abu Ghraib.
