By Amer Mohsen IraqSlogger June 17, 2007 9:57 PM ET Al-‘Arabiya reported that
the relatives of 'Abeer al-Janabi, who was raped by US soldiers and killed -
along with three family members - have refused to accept a financial
compensation that was offered to them by the US Army. Al-‘Arabiya spoke to
the mayor of the village in which the uncles of the 16-year-old victim
reside. According to the mayor, the
paternal and maternal uncles of al-Janabi have rejected a $100,000 payment
that was presented to them by an American officer. The relatives told the US
officer that “their main compensation” would be “to witness the execution of
the accused soldiers” - on television, “in the same fashion as Saddam
Husain’s execution,” the mayor added. The mayor also told
al-'Arabiya that the relatives of al-Janabi insist on not repairing or
rebuilding the family house, in which the crime occurred, “so that the home
remains a testament to the criminality and savagery of the American forces.” Four US soldiers are
currently under trial for the rape and murder of al-Janabi and her family
members in 2006. […] External link: http://www.iraqslogger.com/index.php/post/3234/IraqiArab_Papers_Monday_Sadr_Attacks_Iran |
