A Lebanese investigative judge on Thursday demanded the death penalty for a suspected killer of a British woman whose body was found near Beirut two months ago.

Lebanese officials said Judge Hanna Breidi issued an indictment Thursday demanding the maximum penalty for Tarek Houshi, 29, accusing him of raping Rebecca Dykes before strangling her with a rope.

They added that Uber driver Houshi raped and killed Dykes in Beirut then threw her body off a road east of the capital.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity in line with regulations.

Dykes was found dead on Dec. 16 on the side of a road, strangled and reportedly showing signs of sexual assault. Houshi was arrested days later.

Breidi referred Houshi to the criminal court.

You are a scumbag too, so you should get the death penalty as your cousin here.

So you are a westernized sunni Saudi loving McDonalds worshipper that sells Palestine to go shop in New York.

No respect or sympathy for you.

What difference does this make ?? I fail to see how the Lebanese will become proper humans when they bring the religion of a person into any discussion, Yes, he May be a Muslim, but he is a killer and should go to HELL !!! Grown up all you who discuss religion on this platform !!!

Quelle racaille!!! Il mérite le pire des châtiments, la peine capitale car son crime est des plus odieux qu’il puisse être. Repose en paix Bekkie Dykes

I oppose the death penalty, whoever it's aimed at. I believe this scumbag should be thrown in Roumieh where he can be raped and strangled many times a day, every day for the rest of his miserable earthly existence.
