Kidnap victim lured by woman

PARIS, Feb. 17 (UPI) -- French police suspect a kidnap victim in Paris, who was tortured and killed, may have been trapped by an attractive woman.

Investigators think the killing of the 23-year-old shop assistant identified as Ilan was the work of a group of young men and women from the housing estates of the city's suburbs, reports The Times of London. The group is believed to have made half a dozen similar kidnap attempts prior to the latest one three weeks ago.

Police say in all such attempts the intended victim, always a young man, received a call from a young woman, who then exchanged telephone numbers, the report said.

Ilan was befriended by a woman in his shop before he was abducted. He was found, naked, bound and gagged near a railway, with more than 80 percent of his body burnt.

In e-mail to police, the abductors had sent Ilan's pictures and had made various ransom demands up to nearly $575,000. Police say at least three suspects are of African origin.

"Ilan" being a Hebrew name, I concur that the perps are most likely Arabs.

Hmmmm... I think this is code to say that the perps are adherents to the Religion of Peace.

What a English way to say "Muslim".

In American, that would translate 'from the Muslim slums surrounding Paris'.

The excerpts from real story:

"French police launched a wide-range investigation on Tuesday after a twenty-year-old Jewish man was kidnapped and murdered.

Jewish community security services have said they suspect the crime may have been motivated by anti-Semitism

The French Anti-Semitism Vigilance Bureau (BVCA) has asked the police to investigate and determine whether there is or not an anti-Semitic background to this affair and more specifically whether the gang is targeting Jews.

Sammy Ghozlan, the Bureau’s head, told EJP only one of the four targeted persons was not Jewish.

According to the AFP and Jewish community services, the victim, a cellular phone salesman was attracted by a young Arab woman who came to his place of work, on Voltaire boulevard, in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, on January 17.

Well, if you don't know enough about France to figure it out from the description, you can always Google. Or are you just into defending Muslims today?

France is committing national suicide before our eyes. Our own illegal immigration problems from Mexico is nothing compared to the Islamic influx in Europe.

They may not know sore sure, but if you have been in Europe in the last few years you should know that the possibility is over 90% that they are North African. Because the illegal boarder crossers are getting as bad as the illegal here.

Nope, I was serious. If you're looking to fight, look elsewhere.

Posts like this one always makes me wonder if it would not be wise to have several levels of forum...
We can't answer the same juvenile questions over and over and over...

Not exactly. What we call the middle east overlaps between Asia and Africa, so referring to many Arabs as Asians would be technically correct.

Brits and Americans differ in their use of the term "Asian." Here it means our little yellow friends from China, Japan and southeast Asia. East Asians, who we used to call orientals before that term became non-PC.

When Brits refer to "Asians" they mean people from what used to be British India, where we now find Bangladesh, Pakistan and India. South Asians.

As far as I know, Brits don't generally refer to Arabs or other West Asians as Asians. Neither do we, for some obscure reason.
