Ketika mereka sadar bahwa dia tidak bersalah, dia diterbangkan ke Albania dan dibuang ke jalanan tanpa permintaan maaf.
Upaya sia-sia El-Masri untuk menerima keadilan di Amerika Serikat sudah terkenal, tapi baru-baru ini kabel yang dibocorkan oleh Wikileaks mengungkapkan bahwa AS juga memperingatkan pemerintah Jerman agar tidak mengizinkan penyelidikan terhadap penculikan itu.
Keadilan terdekat yang dia dapatkan adalah sebuah surat perintah penangkapan kepada 13 agen CIA yang dikeluarkan jaksa di Spanyol, dimana mereka masuk menggunakan paspor palsu.
Video ini adalah bagian dari dokumenter Witness.org OUTLAWED, berhubungan El-Masri & pengalamannya.
CIA agents held him for at least several weeks after his release had been ordered. And the injustices didn't end after he was released, he STILL can't get justice. A Munich court had issued arrest warrants against the CIA agents for complicity in his kidnapping and torture but that was dropped. And thanks to Wikileaks we know why, the US government pressured Germany to drop the case, to not pursue justice , to not allow El-Maseri his day in court.
"... similarity of his name to that of Khalid al-Masri, an Al Qaeda agent linked to the Hamburg cell where the 9/11 attacks were plotted. Despite El-Masri's protests that he was not al-Masri, he was beaten, stripped naked, shot full of drugs, given an enema and a diaper, and flown first to Baghdad and then to the notorious "salt pit," the CIA's secret interrogation facility in Afghanistan. At the salt pit, he was repeatedly beaten, drugged, and subjected to a strange food regime that he supposed was part of an experiment that his captors were performing on him. Throughout this time, El-Masri insisted that he had been falsely imprisoned, and the CIA slowly established that he was who he claimed to be. Over many further weeks of bickering over what to do, a number of CIA figures apparently argued that, though innocent, the best course was to continue to hold him incommunicado because he "knew too much.""

"The Washington Post reported that CIA agents, fearing the consequences of releasing him, argued for his continued detention and in fact held him for at least several weeks after his release had been ordered."
