MARBELLA, SPAIN: A picture of a plane that was impounded in connection with an alleged money-laundering bust in Marbella, southern Spain 12 March 2005. The head of a law firm in the Spanish coastal resort of Marbella appeared before a judge for questioning about his alleged role in a huge international money laundering network smashed the previous day, media reports said. The lawyer, Fernando Del Valle, is suspected by police to be the architect of a racket on Spain's southern Costa del Sol worth some 250 million euros (337 million dollars).

Senate Intelligence Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (C), a Democrat from California, speaks to reporters about the committee's report on CIA interrogations at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, December 9, 2014. The CIA's interrogation of Al-Qaeda suspects was far more brutal than acknowledged and did not produce useful intelligence, a damning and long-delayed US Senate report said Tuesday. The Central Intelligence Agency also misled the White House and Congress with inaccurate claims about the program's usefulness in thwarting attacks, the Senate Intelligence Committee said.
