British company run by retired police officers found promoting electric-shock torture equipment

A BRITISH security company run by retired police officers has been filmed demonstrating electric shock torture equipment at a trade fair in Birmingham.

The Squad Group Ltd, whose three bosses include a former assistant chief constable, has registered offices at Chesham in Buckinghamshire.

Human rights groups Amnesty International and the Omega Research Foundation said company representatives were filmed demonstrating the use of gloves which give a painful electric shock to anyone seized by the wearer.
