Tanzim Fugitive Planned to Attack Jerusalem Cafe
(Jerusalem Post) Margot Dudkevitch - Tanzim fugitive Murad Ala'an, 20, arrested by Israeli security forces in Bethlehem on August 5, planned a suicide bomb attack on a Jerusalem cafe where he was employed as a cook, according to details released for publication Wednesday. Ala'an, who had an Israeli identity card, was recruited by Fadi Tsalahat, a member of the Palestinian security forces, to join the Fatah Tanzim. Ala'an confessed to investigators that upon seeing the explosives belt that had been prepared for the attack, he regretted having consented to carry out the attack. Security officials said that in August Israel had thwarted 15 terror attacks including three suicide bomb attacks.
