Bomb-maker ’in Lebanon’

A master bomb maker who once targeted commercial planes and was suspected of aiding the Iraqi uprising has fled to Lebanon, an FBI official said.

There is information that 73-year-old Abu Ibrahim was reportedly in Tripoli, a city in north-west Lebanon, the official said.

The Palestinian terrorist is accused of bombings in the 1980s.

He was indicted in the 1982 bombing of Pan Am Flight 830 that killed a 16-year-old boy and wounded more than a dozen passengers as the plane headed to Honolulu from Tokyo.
