D.C., April 27, 2018 – </span></b><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">The National Security Archive filed suit under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) against the CIA today in federal district court in Washington. The case seeks
12 specific cables from November and December 2002 that were authored or authorized by Gina Haspel, the acting director of the CIA as of this morning. The cables describe the torture of a CIA detainee under her supervision.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">The Archive filed a FOIA request with the CIA for the 12 cables on April 16, 2018. The Archive FOIA sought expedited processing, which must be granted to requests with a “compelling need...made
by a person primarily engaged in dissemination of information [with] urgency to inform the public concerning actual or alleged Federal Government activity.” Expedited processing is clearly warranted in this instance, as Gina Haspel’s Senate confirmation hearing
for CIA director is slated for May 9.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">The CIA denied the Archive’s request for expedited processing, arguing that the request was not “made by a person primarily engaged in dissemination of information.” In the same letter, the CIA
granted the National Security Archive “news media fee status.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
