Ahlam Aref Ahmad al-Tamimi on FBI's Most Wanted list
The FBI has placed a Jordanian woman who assisted in the 2001 suicide
bombing of a Jerusalem restaurant on its "Most Wanted Terrorist" list.
The US case against Ahlam Aref Ahmad al-Tamimi was filed under seal in
2013 but announced publicly by the justice department on Tuesday. The
charge against al-Tamimi stems from an August 9, 2001, bombing at a
Sbarro pizza parlor that, in addition to killing 15 people, also injured
roughly 120 others. Two of those killed were US nationals. After her
capture, Tamimi, now in her mid-30s, pleaded guilty at trial in Israel
and was sentenced in 2003 to 16 life prison terms. The criminal
complaint unsealed on Tuesday charged al-Tamimi, who worked as a
journalist
