The Canadian Press: Spain says French police arrest suspected member of armed Basque group ETA: "Spain's Interior Ministry says French police have arrested one of the most wanted members of the armed Basque separatist group ETA.
A ministry statement says police detained Eider Zuriarrain Mendiguren in the southern French town of Bayonne early Thursday.
Zuriarrain, 31, has been on the Spanish Civil Guard's most-wanted ETA suspects list since early 2010 when she fled Spain following the arrest of another ETA suspect, Ibai Beobide.
ETA has killed more than 825 people in its campaign for a Basque homeland independent of Spain and France since the mid-1960s. It declared a permanent cease-fire in January. The government insists it must lay down its arms."
