Ex-CIA officer loses extradition fight to Italy over kidnap operation | 08 June 2016 | A former CIA officer says Portugal's top court rejected her final appeal and she will be extradited to Italy to serve a prison sentence for her alleged role in the CIA kidnapping of an Egyptian cleric in 2003 under a U.S. extraordinary renditions program. Sabrina de Sousa told the Associated Press by email Wednesday that she was waiting to be told when she would be taken to Italy, where she was convicted in absentia in 2009 and faces a four-year sentence. In a related move, the European Parliament on Wednesday expressed serious concerns for what it said was “apathy” shown by some member states and EU institutions over recognizing “the multiple fundamental rights violations and torture” that took place in CIA “rendition” operations on European soil between 2001 and 2006.
