Israel drops militant trial plan
Mr Saadat initially resisted arrest by Israeli forces storming his jail
Israel will not prosecute captured Palestinian militant boss Ahmed Saadat over the 2001 assassination of Israeli cabinet minister Rehavam Zeevi. Israeli officials said there was not enough evidence to try him for the killing - though he would be tried for other "security offences".
Mr Saadat gave himself up in March after Israeli troops stormed a West Bank jail where he was being held. Four militants taken with him will be tried for the killing, officials said.
