This is being done under the 1984 UN Convention against Torture, signed and
ratified by the US. This has the same legal basis as the arrest of Chili's
General Pinochet in Britain in 1998. He died before going to trial.

I believe the US has tried and convicted nationals of other countries under this
treaty, so the precedent is solid. -- Doug
