8/11/2004 21:36

A senior Palestinian official denied on Monday that Egyptian chief of intelligence, Omar Suleiman had informed PNA that there's an Israeli spy among Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's crew in the headquarter al Muqata'a in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

Arafat's top aide for national security affairs Jebril al Rajoub denied that investigations were done with 15 Arafat's army and civilian bodyguards.

Al Rajoub told reporters that the rumors took place after news that Arafat had been poisoned, adding that "the theory of poisoning is an Israeli Symphony that they attempts to infiltrate to create situation of suspicions."

The official said that all what is said about that Israel had penetrated the security orders and reached to Arafat "is only rumors made by Israelis," he added.
