Dubai police have identified four more suspects, carrying British and Irish passports, in last month's Dubai killing of a Hamas commander, a source in the UAE said on Tuesday. "The UAE has identified two British suspects holding British travel documents, and as part of the ongoing investigation has shared the information with the British government," the source was quoted as saying by Reuters.

 

Two more suspects holding Irish passports were also identified, the source added.

 

Last week, the Dubai authorities have released the identities of 11 people who traveled on forged British, Irish, French and German passports to kill Hamas commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in a hotel.
