Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Former Iraqi MP Ahmed al-Alwani was found dead in an apartment in Beirut, Lebanon, five days after arriving in the city. Authorities determined he had suffered a blow to the head and was strangled. Investigators have identified three suspects in the case; one Lebanese national has been detained, while two Syrian citizens are being sought. The death of the former lawmaker has prompted a probe into the circumstances surrounding his killing. Officials have not yet disclosed a motive, and further details are expected as questioning of the detained suspect and the search for the two others continue.
