Paris lawyer Isabelle Coutant-Peyre, the lawyer and fiancee of the man known as Carlos the Jackal said today that she will represent Zacarias Moussaoui, the French citizen indicted for conspiracy in the Sept. 11 attacks. She said she would defend Moussaoui's rights as a French citizen, such as trying to protect him from the possibility of the death penalty, which France opposes. Moussaoui already has a lawyer in the United States. Coutant-Peyre said Moussaoui's mother, Aicha, asked her to represent her son.
