A British-Pakistani man convicted of the killing of US reporter Daniel Pearl has attempted to commit suicide in a Pakistani prison, an official said Saturday.

"Omar Sheikh, a British-Pakistani, who is serving life imprisonment in Hyderabad prison, tried to hang himself with the exhaust of the prison cell late Friday," senior police official Akram Naeem told AFP.

Pearl was working for the Wall Street Journal when he was kidnapped and beheaded in Pakistan in 2002.

But......but................... BUT ........ He could NOT have attempted suicide.

Islam forbids it.

Says so right here, in the next chapter after the Prophet instructs followers on how to deal with insolent 5 year old wives.

It really was an attempt on this Muslim's life by Jooo supporters of Daniel Pearl.

Daniel Pearl’s killers keep their fingers crossed

(excerpt)
ISLAMABAD: Twelve years after the gruesome murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl, his four convicted killers, who were found guilty of kidnapping and beheading him in Karachi in January 2002, are keeping their fingers crossed to get their sentences reversed when the Sindh High Court finally decides their appeals against convictions.
...
The 38-year-old reporter of the Wall Street Journal had travelled to Pakistan following the 9/11 terrorist attacks and was abducted from Karachi on January 23, 2002, before being beheaded by militants while working on an investigative story about the alleged intelligence links of some Pakistani jehadi leaders. The Pearl killers, including Sheikh Ahmed Omar Saeed, a London School of Economics’ graduate-turned-jehadi, and his three accomplices, Fahad Naseem, Salman Saqib and Sheikh Adeel, were put on trial on April 22, 2002 by an Anti-Terrorism Court of Karachi. Three months later, Omar was handed down capital punishment while his three aides were sentenced to life in prison.
...
He says his clients are keeping their fingers crossed to get their sentences overturned in the wake of the new evidence which proves that Daniel Pearl was actually killed by the 9/11 mastermind – former al-Qaeda No. 3 Khalid Sheikh Mohammad.

Poor dude. He needs lawyers to counsel him, psychologists to analyze him, prison personnel to feed him, a medical team to tend to him, the best heads money can buy to take care of him.

I think they mean ‘by’ using the exhaust pipe not ‘with’ exhaust... Like throwing his sheet or belt over the pipe and hanging by it.

Why is the piece of crap still alive? It should have been put in a hole in the ground and the dirt shoveled in over it.
