Alleged Al Qaeda leader Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has been moved from Pakistan following his arrest four days ago. He is believed to have been flown to a US detention facility at Bagram air base, in Afghanistan. The New York Times reports that the CIA will likely use sleep deprivation and psychological manipulation to pry information out of him. If these tactics fail, Sen. John Rockefeller of West Virginia suggested the US might turn over Mohammed to a country that does not have restrictions against torture. Such countries include Egypt, Jordan and Morocco.
