Report: Sahmarani Killed for Personal Reasons
2010-12-29
[An Nahar] Initial investigation into the murder of Jund al-Sham leader Ghandy Sahmarani at Ein el-Hellhole Paleostinian refugee camp revealed that the thug was killed over a personal dispute, well-informed Lebanese security sources said.

They told As Safir daily in remarks published Tuesday that other thug groups in the camp could have killed Sahmarani for personal reasons because there was no tension after the discovery of his body in a garage inside the camp.

Lebanese security forces have previously questioned the thug and discovered that he had no major information about several terrorist activities, the newspaper said.

The security situation in Ein el-Hellhole remained calm following the murder and the Lebanese army took standard measures at the camp's entrances, As Safir added.

#1  Lebanon Daily Star...

Meanwhile, an official in an Islamist Palestinian faction who requested anonymity, told The Daily Star that Sahmarani was killed for “moral reasons.”

The official said that Sahmarani was arrested by fundamental Islamists for raping a married woman and videotaping her naked in the Tawaree neighborhood, which is adjacent to Ain al-Hilweh and falls under the control of the Osbat al-Ansar Islamist group.

The group considered such an act to be a severe violation of morals it wants to be respected in the neighborhood, the source said. Sahmarani was investigated for 48 hours after which he was released, the source said, and a few hours later was found killed.
