London, June 11 (RHC)-- British prosecutors have announced no charges will be brought against MI6 officials who took part in a joint CIA operation targeting a Libyan dissident and his wife.

In 2004, Abdul-Hakim Belhaj and his pregnant wife were secretly detained at a secret CIA prison in Thailand and then rendered to Libya, where they were jailed and tortured.

Details of the MI6’s role in the CIA operation emerged after Human Rights Watch found documents related to the case in Libya after the fall of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.

In related news, the European Parliament has passed a nonbinding resolution urging member states to investigate the CIA’s use of secret prisons inside Europe in the years after the September 11 attacks.

The resolution specifically names four countries: Lithuania, Poland, Italy and Britain.
