“A German court has issued arrest warrants for 13 people, thought to be CIA agents, suspected of kidnapping a man mistaken for a terrorist … The case of Mr al-Masri is the best known of several individual allegations against the CIA, which is accused by human rights campaigners of secretly ferrying hundreds of terrorism suspects to detention facilities around the world, often in countries where torture is routine.”

I hope that Germany manages to prosecute these CIA agents, though unfortunately I doubt anything will happen as the US is likely to do all it can to block it. The Times article is here.
