Hundreds, perhaps more, of men and women across Africa are being handcuffed, blindfolded and transported to other countries for "interrogation" as evildoers in an obvious imitation of the illegal American tactic of "extraordinary rendition". Many of these victims are refugees who are fleeing war and disorder in places such as Somalia or elsewhere. Authorities in both Kenya and Ethiopia have admitted complicity in these acts which in some cases has included providing those in dentition to American agents for interrogation. Ethiopia has admitted continuing to hold as many as thirty six "suspected terrorists" but has refused to grant the International Committee of the Red Cross access to them. The Kenyan government has said that anyone who feels that the law has been broken is "welcome to file an official complaint".
Those detained have included nationals of Tanzania, Sweden, the Sudan, and the Yemen.
