Former CIA agent - Sabrina de Sousa
Sabrina de Sousa, an ex-CIA spy, faces extradition from Portugal to Italy to serve a prison sentence for her alleged role in an extraordinary rendition case.
Zeinab Badawi speaks to Sabrina de Sousa, an ex-CIA spy who faces extradition from Portugal to Italy to serve a prison sentence for her alleged role in a CIA extraordinary rendition case when an Egyptian terror suspect was seized in Milan 13 years ago. She denies involvement. Last year she visited Portugal against official advice and was detained by the authorities there. She is awaiting extradition to Italy where she faces a prison sentence. Has she been abandoned by the CIA or is she the agent of her own misfortune?
