Two former prisoners of US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) have filed a lawsuit against psychologists who helped to design the enhanced interrogation program, local media reported on Tuesday.In December 2014, the US Senate Intelligence Committee released a report documenting CIA's torture practices on detainees suspected of terrorism.The report disclosed that a company established by the two US psychologists was awarded millions of dollars by the CIA for developing and implementing the agency's torture practices, such as waterboarding.In August, the American Psychological Association (APA) voted to ban psychologists' participation in US security interrogations.The vote followed a disclosure that some of the APA officials collaborated with the US Department of Defense to ensure that the association's ethics policies allow psychologists to participate in the interrogation program.
