I am appealing the government's denial of the request, as it was not limited to the perpetrator or "Shadowhawk," but rather the case itself. More egregiously, the document makes it clear that Shadowhawk is NOT the case being referred to in the request. An actual reading of the document and the request itself makes it clear the the case being raised is the was not the Shadowhawk case.
However, even arguendo, the case is known, and the government has already acknowledged it. Thus, the official confirmation is in place. While the government may exempt specific records or portions of records, it may not refuse to confirm or deny the existence of a case that the government has already officially acknowledged, such as in CIA-RDP92M00732R000400140003-6.
