CIA condemns 'malicious' hack of director's personal email


WASHINGTON - The CIA on Wednesday condemned the hacking of director John Brennan's personal email account, describing it as a crime and saying so far there was "no indication" that any classified information was released.

"The hacking of the Brennan family account is a crime and the Brennan family is the victim," the Central Intelligence Agency said after anti-secrecy campaign group WikiLeaks published documents it said had come from the account.

"The private electronic holdings of the Brennan family were plundered with malicious intent and are now being distributed across the web," it said.

"This attack is something that could happen to anyone and should be condemned, not promoted. There is no indication that any of the documents released thus far are classified."
