Osama bin Laden narrowly escaped capture by French troops working with American forces in Afghanistan, perhaps several times, the head of France’s armed forces said Monday.
French soldiers are determined to capture the fugitive head of the al-Qaida network by the end of the year, Gen. Henri Bentegeat said Monday.
‘‘Our men were not very far,’’ Bentegeat told France’s Europe-1 radio station. ‘‘On several occasions, I even think that he slipped out of a net that was well closed.’’
Bentegeat did not say when or where the escapes took place and a Defense Ministry spokeswoman declined to give details.
On the first day of his trial for killing Marie Trintignant, French rock star Bertrand Cantat on Tuesday admitted that he tussled with his movie-star girlfriend in a Vilnius hotel last July, but insisted her death was a tragic accident.
“We loved each other and our love was growing,” the 40-year-old told a three-judge panel in testimony lasting over an hour at the District Court in Vilnius, Lithuania’s capital.
Cantat did not enter a clear not guilty plea to the manslaughter charge, something that is not required in the Baltic state’s judicial system.
He faces a maximum 15-year jail sentence, with the judges expected to hand down a verdict and sentence this week.
Can anyone give me advise on the must see and do while in Paris (this will be my first visit). I will be traveling to Paris alone (via Eurorail)for one week and I Do Not want to stand out. Any help or info would be appreciated.
The letter from the group calling itself the “Servants of Allah the Mighty and the Wise” was addressed to the head of the French government and published in the Paris daily “Le Parisien.”
It was signed with the name “Commando Movsar Barayev,” on behalf of the shadowy group, the newspaper said.
Movsar Barayev is the name of the Chechen rebel and alleged leader of a deadly hostage-taking raid October 2002 on a theater in Moscow.
Russian special forces stormed the theater and killed Barayev.
The French Justice Department opened the investigation in conjunction with special police services.
Interior Ministry Nicolas Sarkozy said the letter is being analyzed.
Investigators said they had not heard of the group.
Two days after the left’s election victory in Spain, the French and German leaders met in Paris Tuesday to contemplate a European scene profoundly altered by the Madrid bombings and the departure of one of their leading opponents inside the European Union.
President Jacques Chirac and Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder were accompanied by their foreign ministers Dominique de Villepin and Joschka Fischer for talks at the Elysee palace focussing on the implications of conservative leader Jose Maria Aznar’s dramatic electoral collapse on Sunday.
Gen. Henri Bentegeat said about 200 French troops were operating with U.S. forces in southeastern Afghanistan against the Taliban and bin Laden’s al Qaeda. The Saudi-born militant is thought to be there or just across the border in Pakistan.
“Our men were not very far. On several occasions, I even think he slipped out of a net that was quite well closed,” he told Europe 1 radio. He did not specify a time frame.
Bentegeat, who spoke as if he were sure bin Laden was in Afghanistan, said the country’s difficult terrain explained why it was so hard to catch the world’s most wanted man.
“In Afghanistan, the terrain is extremely favorable to escapes, there are underground networks everywhere,” he said.
The new new new “Dangerous Liaisons” — not the one starring Glenn Close (“Dangerous Liaisons,” 1988), Annette Bening (“Valmont,” 1989) or Sarah Michelle Gellar (“Cruel Intentions,” 1999), but the television mini-series with Catherine Deneuve tonight on WE — affords many pleasures of a French kind.
This is irony, is it not, to style Rupert Everett, a gay man about town, as a French womanizer? And sultry Nastassja Kinski, fixed up like a desperate Match.com portrait, playing chaste? And Ms. Deneuve, softened by age and oversweet makeup, looking uncannily like a surgeon’s confection and not the real thing we know her to be? Dressed by Jean Paul Gaultier, more Atlantic City than Parisian court, Ms. Deneuve still runs this show. Quel quel everything.
