Amnesty report confirms illegal CIA practices

Torture free skies

The US has consistently used civilian front companies to conceal secret prisoner transports taking off from European airports, human rights watchdog Amnesty International has said.

In the report “USA - Below the radar: Secret flights to torture and ‘disappearance’” published on Wednesday (5 April), Amnesty claims to have registered over a thousand flights that can be linked to the US intelligence organisation, the CIA.

Amnesty’s sources are the  prisoners who were transported. More from Amnesty.
