Abu Ghraib images 'must appear'
A judge in New York has ruled that pictures of Iraqi inmates abused by US troops should be released.
The judge made the order after a request by the American Civil Liberties Union for access to 87 unseen images.
District Judge Alvin Hellerstein countered government arguments that this could fuel anti-US feelings.
Pictures of Iraqi inmates being abused at Abu Ghraib jail in Baghdad last year have caused an outcry around the world. Several US soldiers have been jailed.
