The “holy warriors” are claiming that they’ve murdered one of their Western hostages: Iraq group says killed U.S. hostage.

DUBAI (Reuters) - The Islamic Army in Iraq insurgent group said on Thursday it had killed a U.S. security consultant, according to an Internet statement.

The group said the man was killed because the U.S. government did not fulfill its demands, which included the payment of compensation to Iraqis affected by U.S. attacks.

The statement’s authenticity could not be verified and no pictures or video accompanied the statement. It was posted on a Web site often used by insurgents.

UPDATE at 12/8/05 10:10:31 am:

According to The Jawa Report, the hostage has been identified as Robert Schulz.
