Dick Marty blasts CIA jail silence, says truth will out

[cal04]

But Dick Marty said he was certain the truth about alleged CIA abuses, including kidnappings and secret transfers of detainees, would emerge before long in the United States itself.

"State secrecy is unacceptable when there are violations of human rights," Marty told the parliamentary assembly of the Council of Europe, the continent's leading human rights forum.

"I'm sure that in the United States the truth dynamic is very strongly at work. I think it may take a month, two months, a year, I don't know, but soon, I'm absolutely convinced, we will know the whole truth," he said.
