Confirmed: the Government Hid–and Is Still Hiding–Manssor Arbabsiar’s First Docket http://www.emptywheel.net/2011/10/26/confirmed-government-hid-and-is-still-hiding-manssor-arbabsiars-first-docket/ And here’s the kicker. The government isn’t even telling Arbabsiar’s defense counsel all of what was in that first complaint. They are asking that she receive the complaint in redacted form.So not only are they hiding the original basis of his arrest from us–US citizens and the world community, to whom the government claimed this is an international incident. But they’re hiding parts of this earlier complaint even from the public defender tasked to actually represent this guy.
