Madrid airport bombers given 1,000-year sentences

None

Spain's National Court has convicted three members of the Basque separatist group ETA of murder, attempted murder and participation in a terror attack and sentenced them to 1,040 years in jail each.

 

They were found responsible for a Dec. 30, 2006, explosion at Madrid's Barajas airport that destroyed a five-story parking garage, killing two Ecuadorean immigrants and wounding 41 other people. ETA later claimed responsibility for the attack, which marked the end of an cease-fire that the group had begun nine months earlier. (AP)
