Murder on murder
: This scares Salam Pax, and for good reason:
Two hours before the dawn call to prayer, in a village still shrouded in silence, Sabah Kerbul’s executioners arrived. His father carried an AK-47 assault rifle, as did his brother. And with barely a word spoken, they led the man accused by the village of working as an informer for the Americans behind a house girded with fig trees, vineyards and orange groves.
His father raised his rifle and aimed it at his oldest son.
“Sabah didn’t try to escape,” said Abdullah Ali, a village resident. “He knew he was facing his fate.”
