FAMILY OF 4 SLAUGHTERED
New York Post ^ | 1/15/2004 | Lorena Mongelli

A family of Christians who fled persecution in Egypt ran into a bloody nightmare in Jersey City - where the husband, wife and their two daughters were found knifed to death in their home yesterday.

The bodies of Hossam Armanious, 46, his wife, Amal Garas, and their two youg daughters - Sylvia, 15, and Monica, 8 - were found gagged with their throats slit at 4 a.m. yesterday inside the green, two-story, wood-frame home they moved into five years ago.

Investigators were struggling to figure out who could have slaughtered the religiously devout family.

Jersey City Police Chief Robert Troy Said police are leaning toward the suspects being at least an aquaintance, after finding no sign of break-in.

"I don't believe it was random," he said. "They probably knew their killers."

'snip'

Rafique Iscandar, 51, who described himself as Armanious' best friend, said his pal also came (to America) because of the pressure of being Christian in the Muslim Egypt.

"They were afraid there," Iscandar said. "They are under siege by the government. We lived in fear."

"Those poor girls, how awful."

Yes, it is. I'm guessing that they probably killed them first....just to enhance the parents' torture. But hey, at least they didn't put panties on their heads. < /sarcasm >

"And wham. Onto the forum it goes."

The worst part is when you nonchalantly go back to the thread and just happen to see that post that was supposed to be private.

The neighbors next door can hear you as you suck air, and a cold chill runs down your spine.

Then you try to tell yourself that probably no one saw it...................yeah, right!
