The Current Iacobucci Report on Detention and Torture
The Current Iacobucci Report on Detention and Torture
Anna Maria Tremonti’s guests discuss Justice Frank Iacobucci’s final, supplementary report into the detention and torture of Canadian citizen Ahmad El Maati. Mr. El Maati is a Canadian citizen who, in 2001, was detained while in Syria for his wedding. He was jailed, interrogated and tortured in prisons in Syria and Egypt. He has never been charged with anything in any country. But before leaving for the Middle East, he was questioned in Canada. And ever since he got back to Canada more than five years ago, he has wanted to know if Canadian security officials played any role in his ordeal.
