Secret CIA detention camp at Guantanamo
It's secret, so don't tell nobody, okay?
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has maintained a secret detention facility, which has never been made public, for valuable Al Qaeda captives at the US naval base in Guantanamo Bay, The Washington Post reported on Friday. Citing unnamed military officials and intelligence officers, the newspaper said that the buildings used by the CIA were shrouded by high fences covered with thick green mesh plastic and ringed with floodlights. The facility, built within the Camp Echo complex, has housed detainees from Pakistan, West Africa, Yemen and other countries under the strictest secrecy, the report said.

"People are constantly leaving and coming," the paper quotes one US official as saying. But it was unclear whether the facility was still in operation today, The Post pointed out. Most international terrorism suspects held by the US Defence Department are guaranteed access to the International Committee of the Red Cross and now have the right to challenge their imprisonment in courts. However, CIA detainees are held under separate rules and far greater secrecy, according to The Post.
