The American Central Intelligence Agency used Czech airports to carry
out extraordinary renditions on at least two occasions in 2004.
According to US court documents acquired by Czech Radio, two small jets
with diplomatic status landed in Prague in the autumn of that year
ferrying terrorism suspects between the United States and sites in the
Middle East. The CIA used two external companies to intermediate the
transfers. The same planes were also used to transfer prisoners to the
Guantanamo Bay detention facility. Czech politicians have consistently
denied any participation on the part of the Czech Republic in the CIA's
clandestine rendition programmes. The US embassy in Prague has thus far
refused to comment.
