AFP - Palestinian investigators said on Friday that Israel is the only suspect in the death of president Yasser Arafat, after laboratory tests suggested he died from polonium poisoning. We say that Israel is the prime and only suspect in the case of Yasser Arafats assassination, and we will continue to carry out a thorough investigation to find out and confirm all the details and all elements of the case, Palestinian inquiry chief Tawfiq Tirawi told a news conference in the West Bank city of Ramallah. Tirawi said the Palestinian inquiry had studied the findings of Swiss scientists, released Wednesday, which moderately supported the notion that Arafat had been poisoned. This is the crime of the 21st century, Tirawi said. The fundamental (goal) is to find out who is behind the liquidation of Yasser Arafat.
