France 'arrests Madrid airport bomb suspects'

Two men suspected of involvement in the deadly 2006 ETA bombing at Madrid’s airport have been taken into custody in France, it is reported.

Spain’s El Pais newspaper said the men were arrested at a house in Saint-Jean-de-Luz in southwestern France yesterday while a third man was also detained on suspicion of involvement with the armed group.

The truck bombing on December 30, 2006, at Terminal 4 of Madrid’s airport destroyed a multi-story parking garage and killed two Ecuadorean immigrants who were sleeping in cars inside the building.

According to the report, France’s elite RAID force detained the three.
