Description
Col Ibrahim Husseini, Syrian Military Attache in Rome, is shown at his home after he was accused by his own Government of "plotting" with the U.S. to overthrow the pro-communist Syrian regime. The Col denied the charge, but asked Italy for political asylum. The U.S. has branded the Syrian plot story as a fabrication.
