Arrests In Plot Against U.S. Interests Abroad.(A)
Byline: AP
A man said to be at the center of a plot to attack U.S. interests in France and linked to Osama bin Laden was extradited from the United Arab Emirates and jailed in Paris, French officials said.
Djamel Beghal was being questioned by French anti-terrorism judges following his extradition Sunday, according to officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity. French police have linked him to bin Laden, believed to have masterminded the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S.
Second Extradition
Beghal, 35, a French-Algerian, was the second person extradited to France in connection with the plot.
British authorities extradited Kamel Daoudi, 27, on Saturday. Daoudi fled to Britain as French police moved in on seven others on Sept. 21. Those arrests were based on information Beghal provided to police in Dubai, where he was arrested in July after returning from a trip to Afghanistan.
Beghal confessed to authorities there of the plot to attack American interests, including the U.S. Embassy in Paris. He has been presented here as a leading figure in the plot, and a man with ties to bin Laden.
