Paris, France--The suspected mastermind of an attack on a Paris Jewish restaurant in 1982 that left six people dead and 22 injured has been arrested in Jordan, a source close to the case said Wednesday.

Zuhair Mohamad Hassan Khalid al-Abassi, alias "Amjad Atta" was one of three men for whom France issued an international arrest warrant earlier this year.
