The French Government is considering the possibility of prosecuting the ex-Mufti of Jerusalem for anti-French activity, according to well informed sources here.
These informants also revealed that the British, meanwhile, have asked that the French authorities surrender the Mufti to them. The pro-Axis Arab leader was arested in France last week after an unsuccessful attempt to cross into Switzerland from Germany.
