Iranian "Diplomat" Thinks He Was Tortured By CIA
TEHRAN, Iran - An Iranian diplomat freed two months after being abducted in Iraq accused the CIA of torturing him during his detention, state television reported Saturday. The United States immediately denied any involvement in the Iranian’s disappearance or release.
Jalal Sharafi, who was freed on Tuesday, said the CIA questioned him about Iran’s relations with Iraq and assistance to various Iraqi groups, according to state television.
“Once they heard my response that Iran merely has official relations with the Iraqi government and officials, they intensified tortures and tortured me through different methods days and nights,” he said.
Wow. Should have saw this coming. The Iranians are looking pretty bad right now after those British Sailors detailed their captivity. What could Iran do to deflect some of that ill will? Have the "diplomat" tell the world he was tortured by the CIA. Of course, their definition of torture is different from others outside the middle east. It was probably something like they didn't get a prayer rug or a quran. Maybe scantily clad women were walking in front of him. You know, really bad things.
