Re: Rendition of Carlos the Jackal from Khartoum (4.00 / 2)

If I remember correctly, Carlos had already been sentenced in abstentia then (and I think there was an international mandate for him). He was then put on trial for another murder. He is still in jail in France today.

Re: Rendition of Carlos the Jackal from Khartoum (none / 0)

Not all countries allow trials in absentia. Are countries that do not have trials in absentia in their books required to recognize other countries' sentences in absentia?

guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper
