2011-08-09 |
(Ma'an) -- Palestinian police rescued a middle-aged man from a Hebron village after a group soaked him in petrol in an attempt to set him on fire, a Ma'an correspondent said Monday. The incident, in the Sijer neighborhood of Dura village, southwest of Hebron, came as a result of a financial dispute, a police spokesman told Ma'an. Police thanked citizens who had alerted them to the attack, and said an investigation had been opened, with suspects due for referral to the general prosecutor in the district. |
