    BRUSSELS, Dec. 12 (Xinhuanet) -- British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw denied here on Monday afternoon any CIA flights over Britain's sky.

    "I gave details about that this morning, we are not aware any occasion where it has happened," Jack Straw said when asked by thepress to clear whether the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has used Britain's airport to transfer prisoners.

    Over the month, the European media has continuously explored the news that CIA set up secret prisons in Europe and used European airports to transfer prisoners.

    Last week, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice visited Europe, but she did not confirm or deny such reports. Enditem
