3) Court Orders Secret DIA Report Removed From Internet

On August 2, 1999, Federal Judge Robert Payne issued a court order to SOFTWAR to remove a secret DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) report from the Internet. Softwar was ordered to remove the unredacted version of a DIA report by 5:30 pm eastern time on August 2, 1999.

Apparently, Dept. of Justice Lawyer, Joan Evans, released the unredacted version BY MISTAKE. The DIA document sent to SOFTWAR by the Justice Dept. contained the names of DIA agents who wrote the 1995 report on the Chinese Army Unit COSTIND. The DIA requested that the names of the agents be withheld under "Title 10, United States Code" to protect their identity.

Softwar has REPLACED the unredacted version with the redacted (blacked out) version as per Judge Payne's orders, prior to the 5:30 pm deadline.
