US EditionSix Palestinians to stand trial in a deadly 1982 attack on a Jewish deli in Paris
PARIS, FRANCE, JUL 31 – Six suspects face trial for the 1982 attack that killed six and injured over 20, marking France's deadliest antisemitic assault since World War Two, prosecutors said.
- A terrorism court in France ordered six suspected Palestinian militants to stand trial Thursday for the 1982 attack on the Jo Goldenberg restaurant in Paris that killed six people and injured at least 20.
- Earlier this month, the National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor's Office requested the trial of Walid Abdulrahman Abu Zayed, detained in France after extradition from Norway since 2020.
- The attack on the Jo Goldenberg restaurant in August 1982 was believed to be carried out by Abu Nidal group members, with warrants issued in 2015.
- No date has been set for the trial as suspects have 10 days to appeal, and it could begin early next year with four suspects likely to be tried in absentia.
- Given the faction's history of nearly two dozen attacks that left at least 275 people dead, David Père called the trial 'historic' despite no previous case.
