the mother of Zacarias Moussaoui, who had been ruled eligible for the death penalty, said a life sentence would be as bad as execution.
Aicha Moussaoui said: "Whether he's condemned to death or condemned to life, it's the same. In fact it's worse to be condemned to life than to die."
The verdict on Moussaoui, the only person to be prosecuted in connection with the 9/11 terrorist attacks, was welcomed by victims' relatives. "If any of them are caught they should be executed," Betty Hilton from London, whose son-in-law died in New York, said.
