SADC states helped illegal CIA renditions

South Africa has been named in a report by the Open Society Justice Initiative as one of the countries that illegally aided CIA renditions. The country was implicated in the 2003 rendition of Saud Memon, a Pakistani national and suspect in the murder of a journalist. It appears that the South African government gave the CIA “carte blanche” to do with him as they pleased. South Africa has also been accused of involvement in the rendition of Khalid Rashid from South Africa to Pakistan, where he was allegedly handed over to US agents.
