What did ministers know about the Libyan rendition link? | Richard Norton-Taylor

if MI5 and MI6 collusion with Gaddafi's secret police has been sanctioned by the straw, Miliband and Blair is the key issue

A key question surrounding the revelation that MI5 and MI6 shared information vital to the security officials Muammar Gaddafi on Libyan dissidents, and has contributed to Tripoli, the response of emergency. Were the actions of British security and intelligence agencies - cooperation with a regime known for torturing suspected opponents - sanctioned by ministers

All they did "government policy allowed ministerially," according to officials familiar with what happened. William Hague, Secretary of Foreign Affairs in charge of MI6, has avoided the question by saying that all this happened under the previous Labour administration. His answer was that the authorities stress that did not remember anyone in the Conservative party that expresses the concerns of the time, Tony Blair, and ghosts to embrace Gaddafi.

Kim Howells, former Foreign Minister of Labour and Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) of MPs and peers to oversee the activities of MI5 and MI6, told the BBC he was "absolutely convinced that it was participation in the illegal rendition of prisoners."

His confidence seems unwise because the ISC apparently knew nothing of MI5 and MI6 collusion with Gaddafi's secret police.

"If someone is going to get to the truth is going to be him," Howells said, referring to Sir Peter Gibson, the former judge who, as Commissioner of the intelligence services also had the task of monitoring what MI5 and MI6 were made. Gibson Research was established by David Cameron in July 2010, but has not started yet because it is awaiting the outcome of police investigations into allegations MI5 and MI6 before.
  • Although he had much time to do homework, it is clearly not been much help. In a statement, following revelations of British collusion with Libya have dominated the front pages of The Guardian and other newspapers, the investigation of Gibson issued a statement. "We will of course ..." he said, "considering the allegations of involvement in the United Kingdom delivery to Libya as part of our work. We will request additional information by the government and its institutions as soon as possible."
  • ISC since its members are the first to admit she has had to rely entirely on information provided by security agencies and intelligence. So, too, Gibson's will. "There is no way the process of Gibson, effectively an internal Cabinet Office may be sufficient to deal with the unfolding scandal of this magnitude," said Shami Chakrabarti, director of Liberty civil rights group. The rights groups and lawyers representing victims of alleged abuse boycott Gibson's investigation on the basis that much of it will be heard in secret and was denied access to intelligence tests.
Before the discoveries made by Human Rights Watch from gutting the British embassy in Tripoli and in the offices of the former spy chief Gaddafi, Musa Kusa, most of what MI5 and MI6 has been done, and wanted to suppress, was exposed mainly by evidence in court. A Green Paper being prepared by the government will propose a new law prohibiting the intelligence in the hands of MI5 or MI6 never revealed in court.
