Man's body found floating in sea
2004-08-22
The body of a Bahraini man has been found floating in the sea, with one of his legs tied to a block of cement. The man's father identified him.
Foul play is suspected...
The security officials declined to give more details as investigation goes on, but identified him as A. A. A., 26. According to eyewitness the body showed signs of having been beaten. The body was first spotted by two men at sea between the two Muharraq bridges on the Muharraq side. Coastguard officials arrived at the scene immediately when they were reported about the incident at around 7pm. The Public Prosecutor has completed the preliminary investigations and shifted the body to the Sulmaniya Medical Complex morgue.

#5  When we Yanks take 'em out and sink 'em with concrete overshoes, we leave it to the professionals from Chicago or New York to get it done right the first time. This was obviously an amateur with no experience or understanding of biological decay and the principles of Archimedes.

#4  See, no one said: "Of course americans are suspected."
we solve our problems, instead of blaming them on someone else.
Which is the opposite of what happens at the U.S.
