Italian Judge Orders 13 CIA Officers Arrested
Friday, June 24, 2005
ROME — An Italian judge on Friday ordered the arrests of 13 CIA (search) officers for secretly transporting a Muslim preacher from Italy to Egypt as part of U.S. anti-terrorism efforts — a rare public objection to the practice by a close American ally.
The Egyptian was spirited away in 2003, purportedly as part of the CIA's "extraordinary rendition (search)" program in which terror suspects are transferred to third countries without court approval, subjecting them to possible torture.
