Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) -- There are 15 new suspects in the January death of a Hamas leader at a Dubai hotel, police said Wednesday.
The new suspects bring to 26 the total of people suspected of having been involved in Mahmoud al-Mabhouh's death, according to authorities. Police previously had released a list of 11 suspects in the case.
Among the new suspects are six more people who allegedly used British passports in the commission of the crime, four others using Irish passports, two other French passport holders and three people, including a woman, traveling on Australian passports, police said in a statement.

With the three actually arrested, palestinians, that makes 29. Add in the extra six they may have "identified" along with the 11, we're at 35. They probably chartered a jet.
Are they going to try to arrest every foreigner that was in the country at the time of this murderer’s death? Seems like it?
I think Inspector Clouseau is in charge of this investigation.
Hell, why does anyone even want to solve this, other than to send a “Thank you” note?
Sounds more like an invasion than an assassination!
Have they found any Amish passports yet?
This is becoming such a farce.
The death certificate says the man died from an aneurysm. The door to his hotel room was locked and chained from the inside.
Maybe the tooth fairy flew in through the window.
“The suspects gathered in Dubai and dispersed to various locations before pairing up again in different teams and heading off to other destinations,” the statement said. The Australians, for instance, are believed to have departed Dubai in a boat for Iran.”
ahh, the plot thickens ....

So we have Israeli agents taking a boat to Iran?
This was not Mossad
I’m glad I didn’t stay at that hotel during that period or I’d probably be named as a suspect too.
That's what the Dubai authorities would have us believe.
They're not arresting these people, they're just putting their pictures out there, but with a disclaimer that these aren't actually the suspects, just the identities used. The only actual arrests, three, have been Arabs.
Mahmoud Mabhouh was a key figure in the transfer of arms from Iran to Hamas in Gaza. If members of the assassination team went back to Iran, then he must have made someone in Iran unhappy. Maybe he was skimming money, or working as an informant for Israel, or both.
Over here...over here...count me too.
I have a passport. Count me. I want to be part of it.
Every article until today, didn't they all state that the date of his murder was January 20?? But this article says that the murder in Dubai was on January 19th; (does that equate January 20th in the West??)
Australians???
Huh?
Why would Australians have been involved?
Have they also indicated any links to Canada or to Canadians being involved?
The Ausralians departed in a boat headed for IRAN?????
HUH????
“So we have Israeli agents taking a boat to Iran?”
Maybe they were sending a message that their work was incomplete.
After this deed, the Australians go to Iran?
Agree. I didn't believe it when they said 11 eleven were involved and certainly not if 26 were involved.
lol. . .better to read all the posts before responding! OTOH. . .OK. ..we are on same page. The Iran thing IS surprising; among other possibilites. . .
Interesting comment to a BBC article: NOT MOSSAD.
Meanwhile, I was wondering when Stormfront had arrived in Dubai....
Like, dig it, the ruler of Dubai is a rich dude, man! Must be Mossad!
