It is entirely possible that the CIA used the TRNC in this program, the legal limbo of the country, the connection with TAF, and the location would make it very attractive.

gecitkale airport id for taf and yet they did not feel the need to use them for some reason. the report is very specific, although it does not say whether it is a cypriot airport or one of the british airports they would have used. landing for re-fuelling is one thing but to imprison them in one of these countries without trial for torture is another.

amazingly they even co-operated with iran on this matter.

from the report

11. Cyprus
Cyprus allowed the use of its airports and airspace for flights associated with
CIA extraordinary rendition operations. In 2007, a European Parliament report
“[e]xpressed serious concern about the 57 stopovers made by CIA-operated aircraft
at Cypriot airports that on many occasions came from or were bound for
countries linked with extraordinary rendition circuits and the transfer of detainees; 72
GLOBALIZING TORTURE: CIA SECRET DETENTION AND EXTRAORDINARY RENDITION
[and] deplore[d] the stopovers in Cyprus of aircraft which have been shown to
have been used by the CIA, on other occasions, for the extraordinary rendition of
Ahmed Agiza, Mohammed El-Zari, Bisher Al-Rawi, Jamil El-Banna, Abou Elkassim
Britel, Khaled El-Masri, Binyam Mohammed and Abu Omar.”946 A working document
that provides underlying analysis for the European Parliament report indicates
that two airports in Cyprus (Larnaca and Paphos) had on various occasions
allowed fifteen different CIA aircraft to land.947
Specifically, flight N313P, associated with CIA extraordinary rendition operations,
departed Larnaca at 6:39 p.m. on January 21, 2004 and arrived in Rabat, Morocco,
at 11:48 p.m. that night.948 In addition, between 2002 and 2005, Cyprus
allowed use of its airports and air space for at least six flights operated by Richmor
Aviation,949 a company that operated flights for the CIA’s extraordinary rendition
program.950 Richmor flight logs obtained from U.S. court records show that flight
N85VM stopped over in Larnaca at some point between December 4 and 8, 2002;
N85VM stopped in Paphos between August 11 and 15, 2004; N85VM stopped
in Paphos between August 11 and 15, 2004; N70HS stopped in Paphos between
November 9 and 12, 2004; N227SV stopped in Paphos between December 14
and 17, 2005; and N450D stopped in Paphos between May 23 and 26, 2005.951
There are no known judicial cases or investigations in Cyprus relating to its participation
in CIA secret detention and extraordinary rendition operations.
