HAGERSTOWN (MARYLAND): A soldier accused of abusing Iraqi war prisoners wrote that his commanders ignored his requests for rules of conduct and silenced his questions about harsh, humiliating treatment of inmates.

In a journal he started after military investigators looking into the abuse approached him in January, Army Reserves Staff Sgt. Ivan "chip" Frederick wrote that Abu Ghraib prison, near Baghdad, was nothing like the Virginia state prison where he worked in civilian life.

The Iraqi prisoners were sometimes confined naked for three consecutive days without toilets in damp, unventilated cells with floors 3 feet by 3 feet, Frederick wrote in materials supplied to the Associated Press by a relative on Thursday.

"When I brought this up with the Acting Bn (battalion) Commander, he stated, 'I don't care if he has to sleep standing up.' That's when he told my company commander that he was the Bn commander and for me to do as he says," Frederick wrote.

The writings were given to the AP by Frederick's uncle, William Lawson, who said the army has treated his nephew unfairly. Lawson and Frederick's wife, Martha, said Frederick was being made a scapegoat for commanders who gave him no guidance on managing hundreds of Iraqis with just a handful of poorly equipped troops.

Lawson said Frederick started keeping a journal to keep track of what had happened before he was assigned a military lawyer.
