In Canada, attorneys for Maher Arar are now saying that criminal charges should be brought against the U.S. agents who helped to secretly send him to Syria in 2002. Arar is the Syrian-born Canadian citizen who was seized by U.S. officials during a stopover at JFK airport. He was detained briefly in the U.S., then flown to Jordan and then driven to Syria. He was held in a coffin-like cell for nearly a year and was reportedly tortured. Charges were never filed against him. Arar was the first known foreigner to be a victim of the U.S. practice known as extraordinary rendition. Last week in Italy, a judge ordered the arrest of thirteen CIA agents for taking part in a rendition in Milan. The judge likened the practice of rendition to kidnapping.
