The Supreme Court on Monday let stand a federal court ruling that allows for the government to secretly arrest and detain people inside the United States. Without comment the court decided not to review a lower court ruling that backed up the Bush administration’s post 9/11 policy in which hundreds of Muslim men were secretly picked up and detained. The Justice Department refused to release the names of the detainees or their charges claiming the release of information could jeopardize national security. This comes after the Supreme Court decided to hear appeals in cases involving detainees at Guantanamo Bay and the detention of so-called enemy combatants. Kate Martin, director of the Center for National Security Studies, said Monday the court has now given its blessing to “a secrecy regime in which arrests are off the public docket, people are held in secret, deported in secret.”
