Permalink Italian court convicts 3 in absentia for 2003 CIA kidnapping of Egyptian terror suspect in Milan

With the latest verdict, now more than two dozen Americans have been tried in absentia and been found guilty for the 2003 abduction in Milan of Egyptian cleric Osama Hassan Mustafa Nasr, aka Abu Omar. - A Milan appeals court on Friday vacated acquittals for a former CIA station chief and two other Americans, and instead convicted them in the 2003 abduction of an Egyptian terror suspect from a Milan street as part of the CIA's extraordinary rendition program. The decision means that all 26 Americans tried in absentia for the abduction now have been found guilty. The ongoing trials, which have dragged on for years, brought the first convictions anywhere in the world against CIA agents involved in a practice alleged to have led to torture.
