Former CIA agent Sabrina De
Sousa, who had been sentenced to four years in prison for
involvement in the kidnapping of former Milan imam Hassan
Mustafa Omar Nasr in 2003 was granted partial clemency late
Tuesday.
She and her lawyer were informed by the Milan prosecutor's
officer on Wednesday morning that all European arrest warrants
against her had been revoked.
The warrants date back to July 10, 2015.
De Sousa was on Wednesday to have been handed over from the
Portuguese authorities to their Italian counterparts.
Her lawyer, Dario Bolognesi, said that De Sousa was free but
remained under a suspended sentence. He said that legal action
would be taken to remove the sentence entirely.
