British official: US said they would "render" him. (Pakistani suspect)

[deminks]

from the same article talking about the US jumping the gun on the terra plot.

The British official said the Americans also argued over the timing of the arrest of suspected ringleader Rashid Rauf in Pakistan, warning that if he was not taken into custody immediately, the U.S. would "render" him or pressure the Pakistani government to arrest him.

British security was concerned that Rauf be taken into custody "in circumstances where there was due process," according to the official, so that he could be tried in British courts. Ultimately, this official says, Rauf was arrested over the objections of the British.

Is this verification that we do "render" people?

1. Render = send to Guantanamo Bay?

:shrug:

2. Render as in sent to a country that has no problem with torture.

with some of our officials taking a personal interest, it is rumored.

4. Something like that.

Kidnapped by a team of agents in black from head to toe & black masks, clothes cut off, photographed nude, drugged with an enema, blackout goggles, ears and nose and butt plugged, flown off to jordan or egypt for torture.

3. If they were worried about this guy why didn't they arrest

him while he lived in the UK?

Did he all of a sudden become a bomb making terrorist guy?

This story gets more ridiculous as the hours pass.
