CIA blamed for secret deportation of US citizen from Kenya
Officials say the CIA did not use its influence to secure Amir Meshal's release after he was secretly deported from Nairobi to Somalia and imprisoned in Ethiopia. FBI and State Department notes describe Meshal as a possible jihadist with al Qaeda ties.
