A reputed terrorist leader, whose release from jail has been demanded by a group claiming responsibility for the wave of bombings in Paris that have killed eight and injured more than 160, was moved from one prison to another, a French Justice Ministry official said. The official did not specify the reason for the move. The official said Georges Ibrahim Abdallah was moved from the modern prison at Fleury-Merogis, 20 miles south of Paris, to La Sante, an aging institution near the Montparnasse district of the capital. Abdallah, 35, is serving a four-year prison term for using false passports and possessing weapons. He has been implicated in the 1982 killings of an American military attache and an Israeli diplomat.
