I'm certainly no expert on torture, but every "expert" I've heard interviewed or read about recently says that physical torture is a very inefficient method of garnering information.
And the 70% "statistic" came from Army Major General Taguba who wrote the initial US Army report on abuses in the Iraqi prisons. He supposedly is an expert.
