Poland announces probe into alleged CIA jails
www.chinaview.cn 2005-12-10 21:30:52

    WARSAW, DEC. 10 (Xinhuanet) -- Poland's prime minister on Saturday announced a "detailed" probe into allegations that Poland hosted secret CIA prisons.

    "I am commissioning a detailed check in all places possible to precisely check if there is any proof that such an event took place in our country," Kazimierz Marcinkiewicz said in remarks shown on Polish television.

    "It is necessary to finally close the issue because it could be dangerous to Poland," he added.

    The prime minister said Thursday Poland would fully cooperate with an EU investigation into the allegations.

    The European Council has asked Swiss lawmaker Dick Marty to investigate the CIA's reported transportation of terrorist suspects through European airports to secret CIA jails.

    Poland and Romania have been identified by a New York-based human rights group as countries hosting possible CIA prisons, but both have denied any involvement. Enditem
