TRIPOLI : According to documents found at the abandoned office of Libya’s former spymaster with new details of the close relations between American CIA and Libyan intelligence service, most notably suggesting that the Americans sent terrorism suspects at least eight times for questioning in Libya despite that country’s reputation for torture, The New York Times Reported.
The Western intelligence services began cooperating with Libya after it abandoned its program to build unconventional weapons in 2004, but the files left behind as Tripoli fell to rebels show that the cooperation was much more extensive than generally known with both the C.I.A. and MI-6 the British Intelligence agency.
