The fourteenth episode .. the killing of the British journalist “David Holden”

On a cold night of November 1977, the body of the famous British journalist David Holden, head of the Middle East Office for the British newspaper, Sanadai Times, was found killed near Cairo International Airport.

One bullet penetrated his head from the back, to end his life in mysterious circumstances.

Holden was known for his bold reports and his deep investigations into Middle East affairs, which sparked many speculation about the motives of his assassination.

Was he a victim of political liquidation due to secrets he reached? Or did his death came as a result of his involvement in suspicious intelligence?

Although extensive investigations were opened in the case, no thread that leads to the murderer has been reached, and the case remained a mystery without a solution.

48 years have passed since the accident, and the identity of the perpetrator is still unknown, so that the secret of the crime remains drowned in the shadows of mystery, and a new case is restricted against an unknown.
