CACI International Inc (CACI) announced that the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has denied a petition for rehearing in two lawsuits alleging detainee abuse at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq filed against CACI in 2004. On September 11, 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit had ruled in CACI's favor in the two lawsuits. The Iraqi plaintiffs then asked the court to rehear the appeals, which the court declined to do.
None of the Iraqi plaintiffs in these lawsuits even alleged that they had any contact with anyone affiliated with CACI. No CACI personnel appeared in any of the notorious photographs at Abu Ghraib, and no one affiliated with the company has been charged with any wrongdoing.
