Peter Moore, who was kept as a hostage in Irag for two and half years has spoken for the first time of his ordeal.
He was regularly beaten and subjected to mock executions. They would handcuff him and hold a pistol to his head before pulling the trigger and firing a loaded gun behind him. At this point Mr Moore said "I just thought I was dead. And then I realised I could still hear laughing, I was still handcuffed and that wasn't the case."
