The definition of chutzpah: Palestinian terrorist sues UK gov’t. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)
A Palestinian terrorist leader held by Israel filed a lawsuit against the British government for pulling wardens out of a West Bank prison that was later stormed by Israeli forces, his lawyer said Wednesday.
Attorney Kate Maynard said she had filed papers on behalf of Ahmed Saadat alleging his human rights had been violated.
The Foreign Office said it was aware the legal claim had been lodged. A High Court judge will decide whether the case can proceed.
Saadat, leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, claims his human rights were violated by the March withdrawal of British wardens from a prison in Jericho where he was held.
