渥太华枪手的真实身份

22日在加拿大国会山庄内被击毙的恐袭枪手,1982年出生时名为Michael Joseph Hall,在蒙特利尔北部的LAVAL长大,据说读的是私立学校。后来移居西部卡尔加里及温哥华,10月2日,他来渥太华跟踪其护照申请程序,在该市穷人区的一所无家可归者收容所里至少住了一星期,直到在22日开枪杀人。在加拿大警方掌握的93名被限制旅游的极端分子名单中,并没有他的名字。

其母亲Susan Bibeau供职于加拿大移民及难民委员会,该委员会官方网站介绍说,她毕业于蒙特利尔大学法律系,康大MBA毕业,1990年进入该委员会工作,2005年成为该委员会负责加拿大东部地区移民事务的负责人,09年4月成为该委员会移民部门总负责人,其职责是帮助制定加拿大的移民政策。

他的继父是自黎巴嫩移民加拿大的Bulgasem Zehaf,曾在蒙特利尔经营一家名为Café Tripoli的咖啡馆,后来回黎巴嫩参加叛军,美国一份报纸在2011年报道了一名来自蒙特利尔的黎巴嫩人Bulgasem Zehaf被关押在Zawiyah石油码头,声称曾被虐待。

Susan Bibeau与Bulgasem Zehaf在1999年离婚。

Michael Zehaf-Bibeau在2000年前在魁北克省被控以13项控罪,最后12项成立,其中4项是非法拥有毒品,被判入狱60天。2001年以身体伤害罪被判缓刑及罚款。2003年,以抢劫、藏有盗窃工具、盗窃和串谋被判入狱两年,缓刑三年。

法庭曾判定他的精神状态正常,不适于脱罪免责。但其在温哥华清真寺的朋友Dave Bathurst认为其精神有问题:“他自称被魔鬼缠上了”,他曾想去中东学习伊斯兰教和阿拉伯语。


23日,网络上流传着一份以枪手父母名义通过美联社发出的声明,称已有五年没有见过儿子,事发前一星期在午餐时见过他一面,对他的详细情况并不了解。并表示如果想哭,是为人民哭泣,而不是为了儿子。此刻简直要疯了,心里只有对儿子的恨。

从这份声明看来,枪手的父母并未离婚,其父亲也没有回黎巴嫩作战。


TEXT OF STATEMENT FROM PARENTS OF MICHAEL ZEHAF BIBEAU


The following is the full text of a statement issued to The Associated Press by the parents of Michael Zehaf Bibeau, the man authorities say killed a soldier at the National War Memorial, then stormed Parliament before being shot dead. The statement was in response to an AP email that asked about reports that their son was mentally unstable or otherwise vulnerable.

"Hi, I am writing this note on behalf of my husband and myself. No words can express the sadness we are feeling at this time. We are so sad that a man lost his life. He has lost everything and he leaves behind a family that must feel nothing but pain and sorrow. We send our deepest condolences to them although words seem pretty useless. We are both crying for them. We also wish to apologize for all the pain, fright and chaos he created. We have no explanation to offer. I am mad at our son, I don't understand and part of me wants to hate him at this time. You write that our son was vulnerable, we don't know, we (he) was lost and did not fit in. I his mother spoke with him last week over lunch, I had not seen him for over five years before that. So I have very little insight to offer. We don't wish to be part of any media circus, we don't think it will add anything to the conversation. Please respect our privacy although many may not feel we deserve any ... Once again we are so sorry. Susan Bibeau and Bulgasem Zehaf"
