Senate Unit Deletes Name of CIA Figure From Report
The Senate Intelligence Committee dropped the name of a former CIA official from its final report amid questions of danger to life. The panel announced the move in a one paragraph statement from the U S Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia as two days of hearings began on alleged FBI surveillance of American citizens. The former CIA official had sought a restraining order, arguing publication would endanger him, but the court found the public interest outweighed private concerns. The appeal was dismissed after the committee said it would reconsider its action making the case moot.
