Following in the footsteps of their Italian counterparts, German prosecutors pursue CIA agents involved in Chimpy’s “extraordinary rendition” kidnapping/torture schemes.
Prosecutors in the southern German city of Munich today obtained warrants for 13 CIA agents they say were involved in the kidnapping of a German citizen, Khaled el Masri.
Christian Schmidt-Sommerfeld, the Munich prosecutor, said the warrants had been issued by a local court this week.
The Bush administration has resisted any suggestion that it might allow the extradition of American agents.
