Slain Lebanese singer laid to rest in Beirut

By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
Family and friends in Beirut are mourning the death of a Lebanese pop singer whose body was found last week in her Dubai apartment. The body of 31-year-old Suzzane Tamim was taken in a white ambulance from the Beirut airport to her family's home in a western neighborhood of the capital on Monday. Dozens of people gathered outside before the coffin was taken to a Beirut cemetery for a burial ceremony. Dubai police are investigating Tamim's death, and authorities in Lebanon have asked Interpol for help in the grisly case. Tamim's decapitated body was discovered on July 28 by her cousin and police officer. No arrests have been made, and it is still unclear when the slaying took place.
