Human Rights Man claims torture before U.S. memo OK'd it
A Tunisian man claims he was tortured by the CIA eight months before a Justice Department memo sanctioned the practice.
Rafiq Alhami makes his claims in a lawsuit filed Thursday in federal court in Newark.
The suit claims Alhami was kicked, punched, threatened with dogs and kept shackled in painful positions at three secret CIA sites in Afghanistan in 2001.
