The US has given details of how guards mishandled copies of the Koran at its Guantanamo Bay prison, including a case of one copy being deliberately kicked.
It was part of an inquiry sparked by a magazine report.
The US listed five incidents of mishandling at the Cuban facility, including the splashing of urine and water on copies of the Koran.
The report said most of the cases were accidental or unintentional.
Last month, allegations the Muslim holy book was flushed down a toilet at the prison sparked riots in the Muslim world. In Afghanistan, clashes resulted in the deaths of at least 15 people.
However, the Pentagon investigation found this allegation to be unfounded and says the matter is now closed.
