Paris court jails Hassan Diab, a Lebanese-Canadian living in Canada, for life after attack in which four people died
A Lebanese-Canadian university professor has been convicted in absentia of a bomb attack on a Paris synagogue more than 40 years ago that killed four people and injured 46 others.
Hassan Diab, 69, the only person to have been accused in connection with the bomb blast outside the Copernic synagogue in 1980, where more than 300 people were worshipping, was sentenced to life imprisonment in his absence and an arrest warrant was issued against him.
