 |  | More cases of possible mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners have come to Congress's attention and need investigation by the Pentagon, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said yesterday
Senator John Warner, Republican of Virginia, also said that L. Paul Bremer III, the former head of the US-led occupation in Iraq, may testify about prison abuse at a congressional hearing next week.
''I'm not trying to, you know, drop a little hint here. I'm just saying . . . each day that comes along, new incidents that occurred in the past" are disclosed and will need to be investigated, Warner said.
Despite a number of hearings and disclosures in the months since the abuse scandal broke, questions linger about the extent of wrongdoing at US military prisons, how it happened, and who should be held accountable.
Before the Senate recesses next week, Warner wants Bremer to testify at a public hearing.
Warner spoke to reporters after his committee had a private, classified briefing on the status of several Defense Department investigations into abuse. He gave no other details on the briefing.
