Abu Nidal escapes to Iraq

The British daily Daily Telegraph said that Abu Nidal who is accused of hundreds terrorist killings had escaped from a hospital in Egypt to one of Baghdad's hospitals of fears of the possibilities of being arrested by Western governments. The BBC quoted the paper as saying in its Friday's editorial that Abu Nidal has fears while he was in Egypt to be exposed to the same pressures he had undergone in Sudan because he had sheltered the international terrorist " Carlos" who was kidnapped in al-Khartoum in 1994 and was taken to France for trial.
