Melvyn Adam Mildiner, a British citizen residing in Beit Shemesh, was shocked when he learned Tuesday that one of the alleged assassins of Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh used a name which is identical to his.

However, Mildiner's face as it was presented by Dubai Police, based on closed camera photographs, looks nothing like the real Mildiner.   

"I am obviously angry, upset and scared -  any number of things. And I'm looking into what I can do to try to sort things out and clear my name," he told the Reuters news agency in a telephone interview. “I woke up this morning to a world of fun,” he said sarcastically. “I want to clear my name.”

Britain said Tuesday that the British passports that served six of the alleged assassins were apparently fake. Ireland has said that the three Irish passports used by the killers were forged.
