/PanARMENIAN.Net/ US President George Bush has recognized the
existence of CIA secret prisons. He reported that 14 prisoners, kept
there on suspicion in complicity in terrorist actions, are sent to
an American base in Guantanamo in Cuba and they will appear before
the court. Among them is Halid Sheik Mohammed, considered one of the
organizers of the September 22 attacks on New York and Washington.

In the President’s words, he reported about the CIA prisons, as the
interrogation of the prisoners is complete. Another cause is that the
US Supreme Court has banned using military tribunals for considerations
of cases of people suspected of terrorism.

This spring the European Parliament commission has established
that governments of some European countries had helped the CIS to
secretly transport suspects. Human rights organizations stated that
US authorities took suspects to countries, where they were tortured.

Dick Marty, who being commissioned by the CE studied the issue of
secret prisons, stated that European governments should make public
the information they have on the CIA secret program, reports the BBC
Russian Service.
