France hands over two ETA members to Spain
2008-04-24
(Xinhua) -- France handed over two suspects to Spain on Tuesday who were allegedly involved in a bomb attack in Madrid in 2006 that caused two deaths and 19 injuries.

The pair, Josefa Iturbide and Mikel San Sebastian, are alleged members of the Basque separatist group ETA, which claimed responsibility for the attack on Dec. 30, 2006 in Madrid's Barajasairport. They were arrested on Feb. 15 in a joint operation at San Juan de Luz in France, Spanish officials said.

Spain's highest court, the Audiencia Nacional, had ordered the arrests of the pair after the attack, which broke the ceasefire ETA had announced in March 2006.
