RALEIGH, North Carolina (Reuters) - A
CIA contractor accused of beating an Afghan prisoner so badly that he later died told a colleague afterward that he had kicked the detainee in the groin, a prosecution witness told a federal court on Tuesday.

In an opening statement on Monday, prosecutors said Passaro
kicked Wali so hard that the detainee was lifted off the ground
and probably fractured his pelvis, making it impossible for him
to urinate. Wali died of multiple injuries, they said.
