| | In the Spotlight: First of October Anti-Fascist Resistance Group (GRAPO) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05) |
 | | Though GRAPO did not claim responsibility for the killings until 1976, its willingness to cooperate with ideologically similar organizations bolstered its livelihood. |
 | | Following the robbery attempt, on Nov. 9, 2000, seven suspected GRAPO affiliates, including the leader, Manuel Perez Martinez, the head of its Central Command Operations, Jose Felipe Lopez, and its head of Military Networks, Fernando Silva Sande, were detained by police in Paris, France. |
 | | Though GRAPO’s numbers receded, former members continue to capture public attention. Sabastian Rodriguez, former GRAPO activist and currently a paraplegic swimmer, won a gold medal in the Athens Paralymics. Rodriguez’s leg problems developed after a 432-day hunger strike in an effort to influence the Spanish government’s refusal to release other GRAPO members from jail. |
