A French Jew who was murdered in Paris is to be re-interred in Israel. The Jewish Agency for Israel announced Tuesday that it was helping to arrange the exhumation of Ilan Halimi’s body, which will be laid to rest in Jerusalem’s Givat Shaul cemetery Friday. Halimi, 23, was abducted and killed a year ago by a gang suspected of having anti-Semitic motivations.
