Transferências

A new bill, introduced last week in Congress by House Speaker Dennis Hastert and others, would allow the U.S. government to transfer prisoners under its control to the security forces of countries like Saudi Arabia and Egypt for questioning. In these countries, prisoners are likely to face torture. This practice is called "rendering." The new legislation would serve to annul U.S. treaty obligations under the U.N. Convention Against Torture; the U.S. is a party this treaty.
