Czech refugee used as pawn in U S bid on terrorism
A Czechoslovakian refugee who fled in 1974 to enjoy freedom becomes an alleged pawn in Washington’s effort to nab an Arab terrorist. David Neimann, extradited to Greece on a check-bouncing charge, loses his business and home after a costly legal fight. State Department pressure and diplomatic trade-offs appear to drive the case, with Greece challenging both sides’ motives while Muhammed Rashid remains detained awaiting a U S extradition decision.
