IRAQ: FAILED WOMAN SUICIDE BOMBER'S FAMILY DISOWNS HER

"Ramadi, 14 Nov. (AKI) - The family of an Iraqi woman who apparently tried and failed to detonate an explosives belt during the hotel bombings in the Jordanian capital Amman last week that killed 57 people and injured nearly 100, says what she did was "contrary our tribe's ethical code" and has disowned her.

"We hope she dies, and we never want to see her again. She is a disgrace," an unnamed family member was quoted as saying. Al-Rishawi, who a neighbour described as "a humble women, without any education or political ideology," is the sister of the right-hand-man of al-Qaeda in Iraq's leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, Samer Mubarak Arous al-Rishawi, killed by US forces in Fallujah. She belongs to the Shammar clan, located in Ramadi, one of Iraq's Sunni strongholds."
