Be careful of this. Unless you speak the language, you have no idea what the detainee is saying and what the interpreter is fabricating. When you give him the authority to conduct his own tactical questioning and allow an untrained individual the use "unothodox techniques" you have just attached your name, and worst, your nations identity to his actions. I am assuming you are not a trained interrogator and you do not have a trained interrogator who roams the battlespace with you. This 'ghan has been given an implied authority, he is documented as working with your unit and someone is on a slippery slope that can have a worst case potential of resulting in international attention, i.e. war crimes, which results in a prison sentance for those involved and in Canada, well what happened to the Airborne Regiment in the 90's? There are rules and regulations about how detainees must be processed and what is and is not allowed with regards to tactical questioning. For us, it is a 3" thick binder and I would imagine yours closely mirrors ours.
Has anyone put him through any form of vetting process?

That is our policy. You ask, What is our aim? I answer in one word: Victory Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. Winston Churchill
