On May 12, 1989, the Greek Supreme Court (Areios Pagos) upheld the decision of the lower appeals court to grant a U.S. request for the extradition of Palestinian Mohamad Rashid, who is wanted in the U.S. in connection with the 1982 mid-air bombing of a Pan American airliner over Hawaii in which one Japanese teenager was killed and 15 others injured.
