Abduction, killing or murder? edit

The title of this article describes this crime as an abduction, yet the article says the abducted people are now deceased, apparently by foul play, which makes the crime a homicide. However, to allege the crime is murder requires proof that all the elements of that crime are met. Usually, this will only happen once conviction of the perpetrators has been secured in a judicial process. That is still to happen. I think the term "killing" should be used instead of "murder" until such time as a conviction is secured for a specific crime. See guidelines WP:KILLINGS and WP:KILLINGOF. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 04:50, 8 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
