New CIA deputy director used to run black site€™ torture prisons

The CIA has announced its new deputy director as Gina Haspel, who took part in covert interrogation programs on Al-Qaeda suspects, and even ran a ‘black site’ prison in Thailand that used torture for questionings, the Washington Post reports.

Haspel managed one of the first CIA facilities branded ‘black sites’, a prison in Thailand code-named ‘Cat’s Eye’, where Al-Qaeda suspects were tortured using the notorious waterboarding, in particular.
