Guess Who Wrote That Script?

So the Prime Minister of a country that throws people in jail without trial or allowing them to confront or defend themselves against their accuser(s) or the evidence against them calls the President of another country to complain about a citizen being thrown into their jail and held indefinitely without trial – is Monty Python working in the PMO now?

Bonus question: Name at least two other [supposedly civilized] western democracies that engage in the same practice?
