Algeria - Mourning For Trappists Slain By Muslims

(3 Jun 1996) T/I 10:56:00 STORY: FUNERALS LOCATION: ALGIERS DATE: 2 JUNE 1996 DURATION: 1.35 Mourning for Trappists slain by Muslims Several hundred officials, clergymen and sympathisers attended a mass in Algiers on Sunday (2/6) for seven Trappist monks killed by Muslim extremists in May. Security was high during the commemorative service and security forces were deployed around the building which overlooks Algiers. Paris archbishop Cardinal Jean-Marie Lustiger, French ambassador Michel Leveque and diplomats as well as Algerian Prime Minister Ahmed Ouyahia and leaders of several Algerian parties attended the ceremony. The fundamentalist Armed Islamic Group, which has long targeted France for its support for the military-backed government in Algiers, claimed responsibility for the killings. The bodies of the seven monks were found a few kilometres from the monastery southwest of Algiers, from which they were abducted on March 26.
