28 Days later
============
Back in the UK, the government clearly wants to keep people banged up
for longer than the current 28 days. Even the police aren't totally sure
why, by any means.
The Tories say no democratic country locks people up for 28 days or
longer without trial, for instance in the US, it's 10 days. It seems the
government out on a limb on this one.
Rendition's smoking gun?
========================
In a Channel 4 exclusive, we have the Council of Europe report on
extraodinary rendition ahead of release and it is dynamite.
The report, to be broadcast on C4's Dispatches, says categorically for
the first time that illegal detention centres around the world existed
and were set up by the CIA, in effect to kidnap and torture people
from whom the USA wished to get information.
It really is the smoking gun as it were, of what has been suspected and
hinted at for so very long.
