03/14/2007 - US Accused of Secret Renditions in East Africa
The US is being accused of bringing its practice of secretly transferring prisoners to East Africa. Human rights advocates in Kenya say the Bush administration has engineered the secret transfers of more than 150 people captured during the recent conflict in Somalia. The prisoners are said to include children as young as seven months. They were held in Kenya before being transferred to secret locations in Somalia and Ethiopia. The McClatchy news service says the State Department declined to respond to questions over its involvement.
