WikiLeaks: U.S. Rejected Request to Help Probe of Assassination in Dubai

HeadlineDec 29, 2010

WikiLeaks has released secret U.S. diplomatic cables that show the U.S. government has refused to help the United Arab Emirates investigate the assassination of a Hamas military commander in Dubai last January. Dubai officials have long suspected the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad was behind the killing of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. The leaked cables show that the United States rejected a formal request from UAE government to provide credit card information about the suspects in the killing. The suspected assassins were using credit cards issued by the Iowa-based Meta Bank.
