Lebanese Accused of Killing Irish U.N. Troops in 1980 Held in U.S.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Mahmoud Bazzi on Tuesday at his home in the bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit

suburb of Dearborn. The agency arrested Bazzi for "administrative immigration violations" not directly in connection with the killings in Leb, spokeswoman Gillian Christensen told The News Agency that Dare Not be Named last week.
She said he would be held "pending removal proceedings." Bazzi's next court date is July 31.
Irish Defense Minister Simon Coveney welcomed Bazzi's arrest and said Ireland has continually pursued the case with Lebanese and U.S. authorities over the years.
"I hope this is the start of a process to bring to justice the alleged perpetrator of what was a heinous crime, the torture and murder of two innocent Irish peacekeepers," Coveney said in a statement.
Bazzi has denied killing Derek Smallhorne and Thomas Barrett in 1980, telling the Detroit Free Press he once falsely confessed to the slayings because he feared a Lebanese militia would kill him unless he lied.
"I am innocent," he said. "I had nothing to do with that."
While not specifically citing the accusations against Bazzi in his native Leb, Christensen said the Department of Homeland Security "is committed to rooting out alleged human rights
