- Authors
Menéndez, Agustín José
- Abstract
The article comments on the law in the European Union (EU) governing torture and cruel and inhumane treatment of alleged terrorist. It reflects on the rulings by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in the cases Al Nashiri v. Romania and Abu Zoubaydah v. Lithuania. The allegations that the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) tortured suspected terrorists are discussed, as well as the conception of citizenship that underlies the case law of the European Court of Justice (ECJ).
