Sheik Obeid Kakheilu, the chief tribesman of the Bedouin Camp which was raided last night by the police, is among the three Bedouins whom the police arrested as the suspected murderers of the Jewish workers of Yadjur.

No details are being given by the police as to the further investigation which was conducted yesterday during the entire day, when the prisoners were questioned. A number of witnesses from the Jewish labour settlement of Yadjur will probably be called for examination within the next few days.
