US Company Sued Over CIA Flights

Posted on Saturday, June 02 at 12:22 by jensonj
Steven Watt, an attorney for the ACLU, told Al Jazeera: "[Jeppesen Dataplan] ensured that flights got from point A to point B and at the end of those flights torture was awaiting the suspects that were on those planes. "They knowingly participated in the extraordinary rendition programme, they knew what its aims were, they knew terrorist suspects were going to be flown to countries where there was substantial likelihood of torture." Support services According to the lawsuit, filed on Wednesday in the US district court in California, Jeppesen provided flight and logistical support to at least 15 aircraft that have made a total of 70 rendition flights since December 2001. "We don't need to know specific details ... it's not our practice to ever inquire about the purpose of a trip" http://mwcnews.net:80/content/view/14840/51/
