CIA official to step down

WASHINGTON: The CIA's deputy director for intelligence is stepping down in the latest high-level departure in the shake-up under the U.S. spy agency's new management, said a U.S. intelligence official on Wednesday. ``I can confirm that she did notify her workforce on Tuesday that she's leaving that position,'' he said. The New York Times reported on its Web site that Jami Miscik was forced out and would be the first major change within the Directorate of Intelligence under the CIA Director, Porter Goss. The top two officials at the CIA's clandestine unit resigned in November. Mr. Goss took over in September with a mandate to reform the agency, which has been under fire for intelligence failures related to the September 11, 2001, attacks and flawed pre-war reports about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
