well I don't know... there are also levels of tortures, some are very extreme and painful and some are less severe, plus they should know what info they want... you can't torture someone until he says"yes it is true we are training terrorists in iraq" information from confessions should be about details of things... like they catch someone they know for a fact based on independent evidence that he was involved in a certain crime, then maybe torture him to know who helped
it is also important to remember, some people are not human, having 23 pairs of chromosomes or being born from a human female does not automatically make someone a human, some people committed horrible crimes, some criminals hold information that, if left unchecked, will cause the death of many innocent people, and they will stand by silently and wait for it to happen
but after saying all this, I still can't give a final answer

a lot of innocent people can suffer if torture was allowed and the army and police can just torture someone
