Some European countries implicated in secret CIA jails

PARIS -- Fourteen European countries colluded with U.S. intelligence in a "spider's web" of secret flights and detention centres that violated international human-rights law, the head of an investigation into alleged CIA clandestine prisons said yesterday. Swiss Senator Dick Marty said the countries aided the movement of 17 detainees who claimed they had been abducted by U.S. agents and secretly transferred to detention centres around the world.

Some said they were transferred to the U.S. detention centre at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and others to alleged secret facilities in countries, including Poland, Romania, Egypt and Jordan. Some said they were mistreated or tortured.
