Synopsis
Hans-Joachim Klein belonged to a radical faction of the German left. He achieved infamy in 1975 when he joined the terrorist Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, also known as Carlos the Jackal, in a plot to kidnap OPEC officials in Vienna. Three captives were killed. Klein suffered a bullet wound. After tense negotiations, Austrian authorities allowed the terrorists to fly to Algeria with forty-two OPEC ministers and employees as hostages. Klein was finally arrested in France in 1998. Here, he tells his story after he was released from prison.
