Two fugitive members of Italy's ultra-left militant group the Red Brigades are in custody in Rome after being arrested at Cairo Airport. One of the pair, 46-year-old Rita Algranati, was sentenced in absentia to life in jail in 1993 for her part in the kidnap and murder of former Italian premier Aldo Moro. Italy's Interior Minister Giuseppe Pisanu has welcomed the arrests of Algranati and 50-year Maurizio Falessi who was given 11 years in jail in absentia for the attempted murder of another politician. Pisanu said the government would continue to seek justice for the victims of terrorism and for their families. The Red Brigades terrorised Italy during the 1970s and early 1980s, the so-called "years of lead", a reference to assassinations by far-left and far-right groups. Aldo Moro, then head of the Christian Democratic party, was abducted in a street in Rome in 1978. Four of his bodyguards were killed in the operation. He was held for 55 days in a Rome apartment before his kidnappers killed him and dumped his body in the boot of a car. **PHOTO CAPTION*** Former Italian premier Aldo Moro, 61 before his assassination.
