Published Wednesday, May 19, 2021 9:46AM EDT OTTAWA - A French court has upheld a decision directing Ottawa sociology professor Hassan Diab to stand trial in the decades-old bombing of a Paris synagogue. Diab s lawyer, Donald Bayne, called the Cour de Cassation s ruling inexplicable and said he is considering an appeal to the European Court of Human Rights. Bayne also urged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to intervene. “The travesty of justice continues despite clear evidence of Hassan s innocence,” he said minutes after the ruling Wednesday. “This shows how political pressure trumps justice. We call upon PM Trudeau to put an end to this miscarriage of justice.”
