According to the president and Blair, the only known mistreatment so far is putting the POWs on television. According to Bush and Blair, televising the POWs amounts to humiliation which is prohibited under Geneva. There's no known reports of torture or murder while as POWs, and there probably won't be until the POWs are recovered, because their testimony is the only way to know if their injuries were sustained during battle or after surrender.
