면제 없음, CIA 관리를 위한 고백 없음

에 의하여 Scott Shane    워싱톤 - Jose A. Rodriguez Jr.는 나중에 증언하기 위하여, 2005년에 심문의 파괴를 녹화하는, 사정에 닫히는 국회 청문회에 수요일에 나타날 것을 요구되지 않을 주문한 이전 중앙 정보부 관리 그러나 불릴지도 모른다, 조회에 요약된 관리는 월요일을 말했다.

    씨. 기관의 은밀한 서비스를 2005년에 그리고 최근에 은퇴한 지도한, Rodriguez는 그가 집 정보 위원회의 앞에 증언할 것을 동의하기 전에 면제를 요구했다. The Justice Department is conducting a criminal investigation into the destruction of the videotapes, which recorded harsh interrogations of two suspected Qaeda figures.

    The committee has made no decision on a possible grant of immunity, so it postponed Mr. Rodriguez’s appearance. He remains under subpoena, however, and the committee may call him later.

    The only C.I.A. witness currently scheduled to appear Wednesday at the closed hearing is John A. Rizzo, the agency’s acting general counsel, who held that job when the tapes were destroyed.

    Committee members want to ask Mr. Rizzo what guidance lawyers inside and outside the agency gave on the possible destruction of the tapes. They also want to question him about why the House and Senate Intelligence Committees were not officially informed of the destruction when it happened, and whether agency officials deliberately concealed the existence of the tapes from the Sept. 11 Commission, as the commission’s leaders have said.

    Mr. Rodriguez has told colleagues he consulted two agency lawyers, who told him that he had the authority to destroy the tapes and that it would not be illegal.
