Madrid train bombing verdicts set for Oct. 31



(Corrects number of accused)

MADRID, Oct 10 (Reuters) - A Spanish court will announce verdicts and
sentences on Oct. 31 for the men charged over train bombings in Madrid
in 2004, the deadliest attack linked to al Qaeda in Europe, it said on
Wednesday.

The 28 men, mainly Arabs living in Spain but also several Spaniards, are
accused of planning, carrying out or assisting in the bombing of four
commuter trains arriving in the city centre from working class suburbs
on the morning of March 11, 2004.

All deny any involvement.

Prosecutors say the attack, which killed 191 people, was carried out by
a group linked to al Qaeda, with help from local petty criminals who
supplied dynamite stolen from mines in northern Spain.

They have asked for sentences amounting to tens of thousands of years --
although the maximum any individual can serve in Spain is 40 years. The
high-security trial ended in July after more than four months of
evidence.
