'CIA has run secret prison at Guantanamo'

Citing military officials and current and former intelligence officers, the newspaper said the CIA facility was built over the past year within a larger complex where the Defence Depar-tment houses high-value detainees and those awaiting military trials.

Officials said the CIA buildings were shrouded by high fences covered with thick green mesh plastic and ringed with floodlights, according to the report.

The Post said it was unclear whether the CIA facility was still in operation. But it cited sources as saying that detainees from Pakistan, West Africa, Yemen and other countries have been housed there under the strictest secrecy.
