Interrogator: Where is the knife?

Terrorist: Here it is, sir.

Interrogator: You tie his legs so he won't move, and then you slaughter him?

Terrorist Ahmad Hashem Al-Ubeidi: Sir, in our last operation, I got a call from Ali Abu Abdallah, who told me to wait on the bridge. After I waited for him he came with 'Adel in a BMW.

Interrogator: 'Adel who?

Al-Ubeidi: A guy named 'Adel, sir. I got in the car, and we passed the Al-Rahmaniya area. A man named Jamal was waiting for us near the Sheik Sandal mosque. When we met him he took us to a house. On the way Abu Andallah told me there was a policeman in the trunk.

Interrogator: What house was this?

Al-Ubeidi: Jamal's house.

Interrogator: In Al-Rahmaniya?

Al-Ubeidi: Yes, sir.

Interrogator: And then what?

Al-Ubeidi: We went into the house, and at night, Jamal slaughtered the policeman. 'Adel grabbed his hands and I held him down.

Interrogator: Who slaughtered him?

Al-Ubeidi: Jamal, sir.

Interrogator: What did he slaughter him with?

Al-Ubeidi: With a knife, sir. After it got dark...

Interrogator: What had this policeman done?

Al-Ubeidi: Honestly, sir, I don't know. It was Abu Abdallah who brought him.
