MAY 28, 2017: The Sunday Times reports that Mr Corbyn had attended a wreath-laying ceremony at Bseiso’s grave. Mr Corbyn denies this. ATEF BSEISO was the head of intelligence for the Palestine Liberation Organisation before his assassination outside a Paris hotel in 1992.
In the years after his death, it was widely reported that he was killed because he helped to plan the Munich Massacre in 19 2. On the night of his death, Bseiso returned from a late dinner with two friends to his luxury hotel in the French capital where he had registered under an assumed name.
Lying in wait were two assassins, who fired three bullets into his head on a dark street.
