Summary

75% Informative

Hassan Diab was convicted for a 1980 attack at a Paris synagogue that killed four and injured around four dozen people.

The Israeli government brought his case to public attention this week following news that he was serving as a professor of Sociology teaching a Social Justice in Action course at a Canadian university.

The Canadian government refused to say whether the French government had lodged a second extradition request for Diab following a petition in the House of Commons not to accept another French extradition appeal.

An independent review of the extradition of Hassan Diab revealed that a usable fingerprint examined in 2007 did not match his print.

Investigators traced the motorcycle to a dealership that sold it on 23 September, 1980 , to a man using the pseudonym, Alexander Panadriyu .

In 1982 , French authorities were informed that the motorcycle’s buyer was a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
