Rendition
(from Online Ethymology Dictionary)
.Eng. 1601, "surrender of a place or possession," from obs. Fr. rendition "a rendering," from O.Fr. rendre "to deliver, to yield" (see render). Meaning "translation" first recorded 1659; that of "an acting, a performing" first recorded 1858, Amer.
To rendit? To be shipped overseas for torture? For torture? Pretty weird.
