The 71-year-old terrorist sought to commute the sentence for an attack he committed in 1974 on a trade on the famous Champs-Élysées in Paris, in which two people died and 36 others were injured. However, the court confirmed his life sentence.

“Thank you very much,” Carlos said in response to the verdict. He also said he was proud of his revolutionary journey, which killed at least 83 people, according to AFP. Carlos rejects the term terrorist and considers himself a fighter against imperialism. However, he refused to clarify the details of the attack on Parisian trade. In a 1979 interview in the Arab media, the terrorist admitted that he had thrown a grenade, but he has been denying it since being caught in 1994.

Once for the murder of three men, including two police officers, in 1975, and the second time for four bombings that killed 11 people in 1982 and 1983 and injured 150 people in Paris, Marseille and two trains. Carlos has been in prison since 1994, when he was captured in Sudan by French special forces after decades of unsuccessful searches.
