<p>A group of Iraqi civilians have lost their High Court bid for a fresh public inquiry into allegations of torture and inhuman and degrading treatment by British soldiers and interrogators in Iraq.</p>
<p>Two judges upheld Defence Secretary Liam Fox&#8217;s refusal to order an immediate, wide-ranging investigation into whether there was systemic abuse, as opposed to ill treatment by &#8220;a few bad apples&#8221;.</p>
<p>More than 200 Iraqis have complained their ill treatment occurred between March 2003 and December 2008 in British-controlled detention facilities in Iraq, in the aftermath of the invasion.</p>
<p>Ali Zaki Mousa, from Basra, the lead claimant, alleges he endured months of beatings and other abuse in the custody of British soldiers in 2006-07.</p>
