ROME (AP) -- Italy's highest court on Wednesday dealt a potentially fatal blow to the trial against 26 Americans accused of involvement in the alleged CIA kidnapping of an Egyptian terror suspect in Milan in 2003.
The Constitutional Court sided with the Italian government in saying that prosecutors used classified information to build the case and threw out some key evidence on which the indictments were based.
Though the judges did not formally throw out the indictments, lawyers said the ruling would at least set the case back.
