Belgard said in his confession that he and his wife had been riding around Chiloquin after a party when they argued.

The attempts appar ently were Communist-inspired The broadcast coincided with reports from Amman that left wing Premier Suleiman Nabul si had resigned in a dispute with the young king over Jor dan's move toward the left under Nabulsi' leadership.
