Al Jazeera "Two men detained by police in Guyana were badly beaten when in custody, a human rights group has alleged.
They were attacked by police officers while being held in connection with a blaze that destroyed a health ministry building on July 17, the Guyana Human Rights Association said.
The pair were later released without charge.
'It appears that there is an alternative police force at work torturing people,' Mike McCormack, a secretary of the organisation, said on Monday.
The alleged abuse is similar to other claims of brutality by criminal investigators, he said."
