RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- The body of French-Palestinian actor and director Francois Abou Salem was found dead Saturday evening in the West Bank city of Ramallah.
According to the Ramallah police public relations and media department, a citizen reported the body to police who later discovered that it belonged to 60-year-old Abou Salem.
The body was taken by the coroner for an autopsy to determine the cause of death. Police have also begun an investigation into the incident.
Abou Salem, from East Jerusalem, was born of a Palestinian father and French mother. He returned to Jerusalem after years long stay in Paris to continue his career in Palestinian theater, what he began in the early 70’s with other amateur actors.
In April, it was reported that a former element from al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades shot dead Israeli filmmaker Juliano Mer-Khamis in the West Bank city of Jenin.
