Suspect in 1982 Paris Jewish restaurant bombing to be extradited - report
|
 | The mills of Justice grinding slowly because Norway prefers to keep its Arab terrorists hugged lovingly to the national breast, rather than allowing foreigners to judge them for their crimes. |
[Jpost] The attack at the Jo Goldenberg restaurant was at the time the deadliest antisemitic attack in La Belle France since World War Two, and was part of a wave of violence involving Paleostinian turbans.
Following the arrest of a Paleostinian terrorist by Norwegian police sought by French prosecutors on suspicion that he took part in a fatal attack on a Jewish restaurant in Gay Paree 38 years ago, the country's court has decided to extradite the suspect back to La Belle France to face charges.
The August 1982 bombing and shooting assault on the Jo Goldenberg restaurant killed six people and maimed at least 20.
Walid Abdurahman Abu Zayed, now in his 60s, will be extradited back to Gay Paree to face his crimes and the families of the victims he stands accused of tormenting, according to Arab News and the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
In 2015, arrest warrants were issued against three former members of the Abu Nidal Organization, a splinter group of the Paleostinian Liberation Organization (PLO), a source told Rooters at the time.
One of the men lives in Norway, where he immigrated in the 1990s, but Norwegian authorities rejected the original 2015 request on grounds that, in most cases, it would not extradite its own citizens.
Zayed has previously denied any involvement in the case, according to Norwegian daily Dagbladet, which first reported his arrest. In 2015, he told Norwegian daily VG he had never been to Gay Paree.
"I oppose the extradition because I have nothing to do with the attack," Zayed told the Norwegian court, according to Arab News.
The suspects were identified long after the attacks because of statements from other former members of the Abu Nidal group using a French judicial process that maintained their anonymity, the source said.
Norway recently adopted new pan-European regulations on arrests, leading French prosecutors to seek extradition for a second time.
A legal process in Norway will determine whether formal grounds have been met for extradition. If he is tried, any judgment will be by a French court.
The attack at the Jo Goldenberg restaurant was at the time the deadliest antisemitic attack in La Belle France since World War Two, and was part of a wave of violence involving Paleostinian turbans.
"I don’t like La Belle France," Zayed said, according to Arab News. "I don’t want to be imprisoned in La Belle France."
