The Justice Ministry in Rome says the CIA's former Milan station chief who's been convicted by Italian courts has been detained in Panama. Robert Seldon Lady was sentenced in absentia for his role in the kidnapping of an Egyptian cleric, Hassan Nasr, also known as Abu Omar. Mr Nasr says he was transported to Egypt when he was tortured. David Willey reports from Rome.Robert Lady is one of the first Americans to be convicted anywhere in the world in connection with the extraordinary rendition program of the CIA. He's technically a fugitive from Italian justice, having been convicted in his absence, and sentenced by an appeals court in Milan early this year to nine years jail, for taking part in a notorious kidnap ten years ago from a street in Milan of a Muslim cleric called Abu Omar. CIA has made no comment on the arrest and police in Panama say they have no information about Mr. Lady's detention.
