Bagram --The Cat's Slightly Out of the Bag
Habeas corpus is a legal principle in criminal matters. It is not a crime to be an enemy soldier. Enemy soldiers are legally held until there is a prisoner exchange or until the one side surrenders. If you want to write about the treatment of prisoners, please do. But the FACT that the enemy are imprisoned is both right and proper - as is the fact that these prisoners have access to the Red Cross/Crescent.
PS: I understand from the cited BBC report that some prisoners did not get their afternoon nap. I'll bet the Afghan soldiers fighting the colleagues of these prisoner are a bit sleep deprived too - d'ya think?
