LONDON, July 24: Jordan is a ‘central hub’ in the secret and illegal transfer of people the CIA suspects are terrorists, Amnesty International said on Monday. The London-based human rights group report details the cases of ‘dozens’ of individuals who have allegedly been tortured in Jordan, ‘ten of whom appear to be rendition victims’.
Reports in recent months have alleged that the CIA conducts ‘extraordinary renditions’ — the covert transfer of terrorism suspects to third countries or US-run detention centres.
