As Dateline alleged last month, Australian citizen Mamdouh Habib was severely tortured in Egypt, where he'd been sent by the United States as part of its policy of 'rendition' - the outsourcing of interrogation and torture to countries known for their human rights abuses. Canada is now dealing with a case that is eerily similar to Mamdouh Habib's. Maher Arar, a Canadian citizen passing through the US, was seized by the Americans and sent to Syria, where he was allegedly tortured to extract information for the Americans. But it seems there was nothing to extract. Bronwyn Adcock reports.This is the first I've heard about this.
