Our case study is that of the German citizen Khaled El-Masri, whose ordeal at the hands of the UBK in “the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” and the CIA in Afghanistan, from 1 January to 28 May 2004, I documented in comprehensive detail in my report last year. We were able to prove the involvement of the CIA in Mr El-Masri’s transfer to Afghanistan by linking the flight that carried him there – on the aircraft N313P, flying from Skopje (“the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia”) to Baghdad (Iraq) to Kabul (Afghanistan) on 24 January 2004 – to another known CIA detainee transfer on the same plane two days earlier, thus establishing the first “rendition circuit”.
