SYNOPSIS

Terrorism, espionage and state secrets. These are the main themes of a much-debated and controversial story that had quite an impact and still leaves many questions unanswered. A mystery left unsolved; eighteen long years of shadows that have not been brought to light yet. For the first time, Abu Omar, former imam of the mosque in Via Quaranta in Milan, will provide his exclusive account of his rendition to CIA in 2003, contradicting the “official” version of facts presented by other figures involved in the case, such as General Nicolò Pollari, the former head of the Italian military intelligence agency, and state prosecutor Armando Spataro.
