Tajne Więzienia CIA W Europie – Implikacje Dla Polski
CIA Secret Detention Sites in Europe – Implications for Poland

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present the status of Poland’s implementation of European Court of Human Rights judgments in the Al Nashiri and Husayn (Abu Zubaydah) cases due to the existence of secret CIA detention sites in Poland as well as torturing of persons suspected of terrorism. This article is focused on the factual findings made in the course of international investigations carried out by the European Parliament and the European Council. Persons suspected of terrorism are not in a legal no-man’s-land. They have the same fundamental rights, especially the same right not to be tortured. The state secret cannot be a tool for limiting state responsibility for conducting transparent and effective investigations on serious violations of human rights.
