Warrants issued in Germany kidnapping
BERLIN — Arrest warrants were issued for 13 people in connection with the alleged CIA-orchestrated kidnapping of a German citizen in the agency’s extraordinary rendition program, a Munich prosecutor said Wednesday.

Prosecutor Christian Schmidt-Sommerfeld told The Associated Press that the warrants were issued in the “last few days” against the “13 alleged kidnappers” on suspicion of false imprisonment and serious bodily harm in connection with the kidnapping of Khaled al-Masri, a German citizen of Lebanese descent.

None of the suspects were identified. However, Schmidt-Sommerfeldt said in a later statement that “the personal details contained in the arrest warrants are, according to our current knowledge, aliases of CIA agents.”

The U.S. Justice Department has declined to provide Munich prosecutors assistance, citing ongoing legal proceedings in the United States.

Al-Masri has asked a federal appeals court in Richmond, Va., to reinstate a lawsuit he filed against the CIA. A judge dismissed the lawsuit in May, ruling that a trial could harm national security by revealing details about CIA activities.

I wonder if information revealed in the trial had any bearing on this development.
