Inquiries into 'secret CIA detention centres'
Agencies
11/09/05 "The
Guardian" -- -- The Council of Europe, the continent's
human rights watchdog, has opened an inquiry into reports of secret
CIA detention centres in Romania and Poland, the European commission
said yesterday.
It follows a Washington Post report this month which said the
intelligence agency has been interrogating al-Qaida captives in
eastern Europe.
The CIA has also taken the first step toward a criminal
investigation of the leak, possibly of classified information, on
which the newspaper based its report, a US official said yesterday.
The agency has sent a report to the US Justice Department.
