A judge on Monday ordered the government to serve a lawsuit on two unidentified federal agents who allegedly participated overseas in the mistreatment of a Muslim man from New Jersey who was held in Africa for four months between 2006-2007.
Lawyers for Amir Mohamed Meshal, a U.S. citizen who now lives in Tinton Falls, N.J., say he was questioned more than 30 times as a suspected terrorist and threatened with torture and death while imprisoned in Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia.
In a lawsuit filed on his behalf by the American Civil Liberties Union, Meshal says he knew two of his interrogators only as "Tim" and "Dennis." Meshal's lawyers say they are confident the two were FBI agents.
