NEW YORK -- A federal judge on Wednesday ordered the CIA to comply with the Freedom of Information Act and provide records concerning the treatment of prisoners in Iraq.

The spy agency also was given the option of explaining better why it cannot release the documents.

"Congress has set the laws, and it is the duty of executive agencies to comply with them," U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein wrote.

It was the second time in six months that the judge suggested the government was impeding the American Civil Liberties Union's quest to monitor government actions in the war on terrorism.
