Eta leader arrested
Two of Spain’s most wanted alleged terrorists and at least 16 other suspected members of the armed Basque separatist group Eta were captured today in a vast French-Spanish police operation, authorities said.
Mikel Albizu Iriarte, the suspected leader of Eta’s political wing since 1993, and his partner Soledad Iparraguirre were arrested near Pau in southwestern France, French investigators and Spanish authorities said.
