Udienza nei nastri distrutti di CIA
Un giudice degli Stati Uniti la notte scorsa ha ordinato la gestione di Bush spiegare se il CIA ha violato un mandato distruggendo le videotape delle interrogazioni dure di due sospetti di terrorismo.
Il Henry Kennedy, che del giudice della corte del distretto degli Stati Uniti in 2005 aveva ordinato il governo per conservare le informazioni su maltrattamento del prigioniero alla base navale degli Stati Uniti alla baia de Guantanamo, la Cuba, ha programmato un'udienza di corte sui nastri per venerdì, escludenti le obiezioni di governo.
Gli avvocati per un gruppo degli interni della baia de Guantanamo che contestano la loro detenzione avevano invitato l'udienza per imparare se il governo aveva aderito all'ordine di conservazione. They cited reports that information obtained from the interrogations implicated five unnamed Guantanamo detainees.
“We hope to establish a procedure to review the government’s handling of evidence in our case … and generally to require an accounting from a government that has admitted that it destroyed evidence,” said David Remes, an attorney for the group of inmates.
He declined to comment on whether he believed any of his clients were implicated during the interrogations.
The CIA on December 6th disclosed that it had destroyed hundreds of hours of interrogation tapes, prompting an outcry from congressional Democrats and human rights activists. The sessions recorded on the tapes were believed to have included a form of simulated drowning known as waterboarding, which has been condemned internationally as torture.
The CIA said it destroyed the tapes lawfully and did so out of concern for the safety of agents involved if the recordings were ever made public. The White House has repeatedly denied the United States tortures terrorism suspects.
The Justice Department declined to comment on the judge’s hearing order but the department last week urged Kennedy not to investigate the videotapes.
