Two passengers on doomed Air France jet had names linked to Islamic terror groups

Two passengers with names linked to Islamic terrorism were on board the Air France flight which crashed with the loss of 228 lives, it emerged today. Both were men in their 20s of unspecified nationality, but their bodies have not yet been found, making proper identification impossible.

French secret servicemen established the connection while working through the list of those who boarded the doomed Airbus in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on May 31st.

It has also emerged that the laptop and boarding pass of British oil executive Arthur Coakley have been found in the wreckage of the jet.

Flight AF447 crashed in mid-Atlantic en route to Paris during a violent storm.
While it is certain that there were computer malfunctions – and that these were the most likely reason for the accident - terrorism has not been ruled out.

Soon after the fatal crash agents working for the DGSE (Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure), the French equivalent of MI6, were dispatched to Brazil.

It was there that they established that two names on the passenger list are also on highly classified documents listing the names of radical Muslims considered a threat to the French Republic.

There were 32 nationalities represented on the Air France flight, including Moroccans and Lebanese. (Daily Mail)
