月曜日のイタリアの裁判官は国で高等法院が場合で支配できるまでCIAの異常な演出プログラムを含む最初の試験を中断した。

イタリアの政府は2003年2月17日にミラノの通りからのエジプトのテロリストの容疑者の誘拐の訴えられる26のアメリカの被告に対して遂行者に主証拠- CIAへの情報提供者として遂行者が識別する1つを除いてすべてへのアクセスを-否定するために憲法制定法庭を頼んだ。

効果的に箱を中止する議論では出た充満を正当化するために裁判官が州秘密に起訴不法に頼ったと、州弁護士は言った。

On Monday, Judge Oscar Magi suspended the trial until October 24, agreeing to a request by the defence to put the trial on hold until the Constitutional Court’s ruling, which is expected on October 19.

The ruling will indicate whether the trial will have the power to publicly air details of the US renditions - moving terrorism suspects from country to country without public legal proceedings - as well as to pick over details of what was supposed to be a highly secret operation.

Italian prosecutors say Osama Moustafa Hassan Nasr, also known as Abu Omar, was abducted in an operation coordinated by the CIA and Italian intelligence, then transferred to US bases in Italy and Germany before being moved to Egypt, where he was imprisoned for four years. Nasr, who was released on February 11, said he was tortured.

Prosecutor Armando Spataro argued vigorously that the court must continue its deliberations despite the pending case in the highest court, denying that any state secrets were involved in the preparation of the case and expressing confidence that the Constitutional Court’s decision would back him up.

Besides the Americans, seven Italians were also indicted in the case, including Nicolo Pollari, the former chief of military intelligence. Pollari has denied any involvement by Italian intelligence in the abduction.

The 26 Americans have left Italy, and a senior US official has said they would not be turned over for prosecution even if Rome requests it. The Italian government has not yet responded to prosecutors’ requests to seek their extradition.
