Algiers plans to request extradition in hijacking case
U S officials say they will seek extradition of Western Airlines hijacker William Holder and the $500000 ransom. They expect a good chance to recover the money but doubt Algeria will return the hijacker and his female companion Mary Karkow. Both claim exile with the Black Panther movement. Another hijacker, William Hahneman, faces charges after parachuting from an Eastern Airlines jet in May. Robb D Heady, a Vietnam veteran, awaits trial on air piracy charges.
