Hamadei was the second suspected terrorist to be arrested in Europe last week. In Italy, police at Milan airport seized another Lebanese man, Bachir Khodr, 26, who arrived from Beirut. Inspection of picture frames and chocolate Easter eggs in Khodr's luggage found them to be filled with 24 lbs. of plastic explosives. A portable radio that he carried contained 36 detonators. Authorities in Italy believe Khodr may be a member of a pro-Iranian terrorist group called Hizballah and could possibly have ties to Hamadei. Italian Interior Minister Oscar Scalfaro asserted that the "arrest in Frankfurt is linked with...

Though they captured him at 3 in the morning, Boumedienne's men took no chances of a rescue by Ben Bella partisans. They hustled their prisoner aboard a Russian-built...
...soft June evening this summer, the police of industrial Lille came upon a man named Bachir Boussaid lying in a back alley with his head split open. The police knew him as a minor Algerian nationalist who had once belonged to the more moderate M.N.A. and then switched his allegiance to the terrorist F.L.N. Boussaid was taken to a hospital where, the police say, his dying delirium was composed almost entirely of names and addresses...
