#1 Update from Utusan Malaysia Online: "Kamel was believed to be a student at Yemen's Al-Iman university, which is run by controversial Al-Islah Party thinker Sheikh Abdul Majid al-Zindani and was closed briefly last year as a hotbed of Islamic fundamentalism. Ali al-Jarallah, a fundamentalist who shot dead the deputy leader of the Yemen Socialist Party (YSP) at an Al-Islah conference in Sanaa on Saturday, went to the same university. Sources close to the investigation said Kamel confessed to being one of five Islamist activists charged with carrying out five operations, including the assassination of the YSP's Jarallah Omar. They did not specify who was behind the orders."
Sounds to me like this isn't the "lone gunman" that was first reported.
