"They beat me from all sides"
A man with a German passport travels to Macedonia to celebrate New Year and is captured under the suspicion of being a terrorist and finally ends up in what appears to be one of the prisons the US Army runs for its "War on Terror". Story from Guardian Online.
I understand that Khaled el-Masri's story is still being verified. However my usual approach is the one of "partial truth", meaning that it would already be shocking enough if only a small percentage of this story is true. It looks likely.
