11 Hamas slaying suspects on Interpol wanted list
PARIS — Interpol has put 11 people suspected in the slaying of a Hamas militant leader in Dubai on its most-wanted list.
The international police agency says it has issued red notices, its highest-level alert, to its member countries worldwide for “11 internationally wanted individuals who have been charged by UAE-Dubai authorities with coordinating and committing the murder.”
Interpol says it was acting on the request of Dubai authorities and that it believes the suspects used false passports.
Interpol issued the notices — which include photographs — “to limit the ability of accused murderers from traveling freely using the same false passports.”
Hamas commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh’s body was found Jan. 20 in his hotel room.
