I think racism was in effect in this individual case. He tried to lobby his superiors there to treat the inmates better. There were numerous attempts of suicides there and possible torture scenarios. These people missed their homes back in the Muslim world and he just wanted to make it a little easier for them.
Perhaps his xenophobic superiors felt that he was being "unpatriotic" when he started asking for leniency on the prisoners.
