I've wondered that too....first noticed it after posting above that Saad's kind face reminded me of my best friend. Then all of a sudden, in the next day's online papers - but wait, Ruben's eyes aren't blue! lol

"The victims' family are of Iraqi-Arabic origin. We are very grateful for the support provided by the British, French and Iraqi authorities during this difficult time.

Why did the family emphasize that they are of Iraqi-Arabic origin? To imply that Saad would never have helped out the Persians? (i.e. Iran)

He said the scene of the crime had been protected by the gendarmerie again today as witness statements were being checked for timings of sightings, which often changed when people thought for longer about what they had seen.

It reads to me that they are rechecking RAFman's version of events.

Thanks for the updates! I guess we're not any closer to solving this case. This could take years especially if espionage is involved.

This is just the beginning and I predict there will be a lot of finger pointing and cover ups. :moo:

Good catch!

Yes, a big thanks to all tweet re-posters and otherwise-updaters. Another fascinating day in a fascinating - albeit tragic - case.

In the press conference (before BBC & Sky decided to stop showing it!) the prosecutor said that they may get the RAF man to re-do his bike ride
