Bernadine Dohrn, a Weathermen leader who was placed on the FBI's ten-most-wanted list last week for alleged "interstate flight, mob action, riot and conspiracy," has escaped to Algeria. Black Panther leader Eldridge Cleaver said yesterday.
Dohrn, 28, joins Cleaver and Timothy Leary both of whom are also on the ten-most-wanted list-in seeking political asylum in Algeria. Leary arrived in Algiers with his wife on Saturday after escaping last month from jail in California where he was serving a ten-year term on a narcotics charge.
Cleaver said that Dohrn's successful flight from the United States, where the FBI has sought her for the past ten months, was "a blow to American imperialism" which "exposes" J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI "as the paper tigers they are" He added that Dohrn and Leary would give the details of their escapes at a joint press conference today.
