Spain’s high court has sentenced an Eta member to 100 years and three months in prison for the murder of a socialist leader almost six years ago.

Fernando Buesa and bodyguard Jorge Diez died in a car bomb attack in the Basque capital, Vitoria, in February 2000.

The court said the case against ‘s Diego Ugarte Lopez de Arkaute had been proven beyond doubt, Efe reports.

Eta, which wants an independent Basque nation, has been blamed for more than 800 killings in the past four decades.

It has not carried out any fatal attacks for two years but has claimed responsibility for a series of small bombs set off in recent weeks.
