Original: “Extraordinary Rendition All Over Again”: US Deportees Sent to Equatorial Guinea Beaten, Imprisoned
A report is drawing attention to US deportees sent to Equatorial Guinea who say they were beaten and imprisoned upon arrival. Critics are comparing the practice to extraordinary rendition, arguing the United States is outsourcing detention to a country with a documented record of human rights abuses. Human rights advocates are calling for accountability and closer scrutiny of deportation agreements with repressive governments.
Why now: Renewed scrutiny of US deportation practices and comparisons to extraordinary rendition are prompting debate about human rights obligations.
