The interrogation of Abu Zubaydah, the first suspect captured and placed in CIA custody, was the initial justification for the CIA torture program. The CIA falsely claimed that it had acquired unique, otherwise unavailable information by torturing Zubaydah. However, CIA records show that FBI interrogators gained the most valuable information from Abu Zubaydah using traditional rapport building interrogation techniques before the CIA began its torture program. The Senate Report describes how the CIA claimed credit for information obtained by FBI interrogators, as well as how the CIA continued to torture Zubaydah after CIA staff advised against continuing the brutal methods because they were harmful and not producing accurate intelligence.
