Ghost Plane, Stephen Grey's book on rendition (which I have yet to read, but is certainly on my list) now has an accompanying website with a searchable database of flight logs from suspected CIA jets involved in the program. The site also has a statement from Abu Omar, the Islamist abducted by the CIA in Italy and flown to prison in Egypt. Among the "highlights" of his testimony are:

3) My feet hanged me from the ceiling and my head down, my hands tied to my back my feet tied up. I was subjected to electric shocks all over my body specially in my head, nipples, testicles, and penis. My testicles where also beaten with a stick and squeezed tightly if I refused to answer their questions or suspected of telling lies.

10) They sexually assaulted me and raped me. This was the worse thing that happened to me, physical torture can be overcome with times, but the psychological impact of rape and the feeling of humiliation stay for good. I was raped twice. My hands were tied to my back and naked face down, while someone lay on top of me attempting to rape me. I screamed so hard till I lost consciousness and I don’t know if he it was for real or just threats.


Well worth a visit.
