Former CIA director George Tenet defended the agency's interrogation techniques, which human rights groups say border on torture, saying tough US interrogation of terrorist suspects had proven more valuable than any of the other intelligence gathered by US authorities, "60 Minutes" Television show said on Wednesday.
"I know that this program has saved lives. I know we've disrupted plots," Tenet told the program. "I know this program alone is worth more than the FBI, the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency put together, have been able to tell us." (Reuters)
