He stated that “thanks to largely what the movie industry portrays, everybody thinks that third grade is the only way interrogations can take place.” This is completely false. You will not find the answers you seek by beatings and torture. Today’s terrorist is fully indoctrinated. To understand a person’s psychology and to break down their minds to obtain information, one must first get to know them. There are also courts, lawyers, NGOs, and strict laws. The common perception that a criminal is unable to function after being beaten is false. When we question the accused, we use many mental games. Sometimes I step in and do it myself. I interrogated Ajmal Kasab for the first-time on the 27th, at approximately four or five a.m.
