Youssef Magied al-Molqui, who led a group of four Palestinian Liberation Front terrorists in hijacking the Achille Lauro cruise ship in 1985, was released from an Italian prison on Wednesday and ordered to leave the country. His attorney said there is no country that is willing to take him. The four hijackers shot and killed Leon Klinghoffer, an elderly American Jewish man who was in a wheelchair, and threw his body overboard.

Al-Molqui was released early for good behavior after serving 24 years of a 30-year sentence. He failed to return to the prison in 2006 after a 12-day furlough and was later arrested in Spain.
