US 'disappointed' Germany freed TWA hijacker

WASHINGTON - The United States expressed disappointment Tuesday that Germany released a convicted TWA hijacker and murderer, and vowed to bring Mohammed Ali Hamadi to trial on U.S. soil.

"We are disappointed by the fact that he was released before the end of his full sentence," U.S. State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said.

"We believe that the facts merit his standing trial in the United States for the murder of Mr Stethem," McCormack said.

In Germany, a spokeswoman for the Frankfurt prosecutor's office confirmed that Hamadi was released from jail last Thursday. Germany's Justice Ministry said that Berlin had no current extradition request from the United States.

A life sentence in Germany generally means a convict can be released after 15 years in prison, and the Justice Ministry said Hamadi had served his required time.
