-- WEST BANK -- Palestinian police say a 15-year-old boy has been found hanged near the town of Qalqilya in the West Bank. They said several family members had confessed to involvement in the killing, accusing the boy of collaborating with the Israeli army.Honour killing... apparently it's not just for wayward daughters.
Collaboration is viewed as a serious offence in Palestinian society. Suspects are often summarily killed.
He said the boy's father, uncle and cousin confessed to the killing, but that police were also investigating other motives for the killing.**********
