Spanish Government to Investigate CIA Flight Claims The Spanish Interior Minister has announced an investigation into claims that CIA planes carrying Muslim extremist suspects made secret stopovers on Spanish soil adding that the matter could damage relations between Madrid and Washington. Spanish newspaper El Pais claimed that CIA aircraft carrying prisoners have made at least 10 stops in the Balearic Islands between 22 January 2004 and 17 January 2005. A CIA spokesperson had no comment on the investigation. Pentagon spokesman, Bryan Whitman told reporters “We typically don't talk about the movement of detainees except when they are being transferred or released to another country."
