The European Court of Human Rights has awarded a German citizen compensation after finding he was an innocent victim of extraordinary rendition by the CIA.
It ordered Macedonia to pay Khaled al-Masri 60,000 euros (£48,000; $78,000) for arresting him and handing him over to the Americans in December 2003.
He spent five months in secret CIA jails for suspected Islamist militants.
The verdict is a major victory for Mr Masri who has struggled to clear his name in the US and Germany.
Please check out this article on BBC News about a man wrongfully arrested under ‘Rendition’, tortured, dumped by the side of the road and left to fend for himself. I encouraged you to watch the movie Rendition sometime ago….you really should do so after reading this news article….it could happen to you or to someone you know….you only need to be ‘suspected’ of being in the wrong place to qualify for rendition.
A horrible reality of the laws of our country. Where are we headed as a nation?
