Paris police today announced that they have released three of the five youths seized yesterday on suspicion of being connected with the Stern Group in Palestine.
The two still held are Jacques Martinsky and Robert Mizrachi. Five revolvers are said to have been found in Martinsky’s apartment. The three released youths, all of whom are under 20, were only undergoing “terrorist training,” the police asserted.
