U.S. operates worldwide network of secret jails..


A report released Thursday by Human Rights First says the United States is holding terrorism supsects in more than two dozen detention centers worldwide, at least half of which operate in total secrecy. Deborah Pearlstein, director of the group’s U.S. Law and Security Program, told Reuters that the secretive conditions make “inappropriate detention and abuse not only likely but inevitable.” The report coincided with news that Defense Secretary Rumsfeld ordered military officials to hide a detainee from the Red Cross in Iraq.”
