Dick Cheney, the US vice-president, has been accused of endorsing torture after agreeing that a “dunk in water” may be an acceptable means of getting terrorist suspects to talk.

Asked during a US radio interview on Tuesday if a “dunking a terrorist in water” was an acceptable practice, Cheney replied, “It’s a no-brainer for me.”
