A Lebanese banker was found dead in his parking lot in a Beirut suburb on Thursday, according to reports by the state-run National News Agency.
Antoine Daher, director of group ethics and fraud risk management at Byblos bank, was struck dead by a “sharp object on his head in the car park of his building in Hazmieh”, south-east of the Lebanese capital.
In a statement, Byblos Bank said that it was “awaiting the results of the investigation carried out by the competent security authorities” and extended “its deepest condolences to his family, loved ones and all his colleagues and employees.”
Mr Dagher's wife told Lebanese newspaper The Daily Star that she last saw her husband at 7.30 am as he was leaving for work.
A security source told the newspaper that Mr Dagher died instantly and said his body was discovered by neighbours.
His Linkedin page shows that he had worked at Byblos Bank for nearly 20 years.
The motive of his murder remains unknown.
Quick pearls of wisdom
Focus on gratitude: And do so deeply, he says. “Think of one to three things a day that you’re grateful for. It needs to be specific, too, don’t just say ‘air.’ Really think about it. If you’re grateful for, say, what your parents have done for you, that will motivate you to do more for the world.”
Know how to fight: Shetty married his wife, Radhi, three years ago (he met her in a meditation class before he went off and became a monk). He says they’ve had to learn to respect each other’s “fighting styles” – he’s a talk it-out-immediately person, while she needs space to think. “When you’re having an argument, remember, it’s not you against each other. It’s both of you against the problem. When you win, they lose. If you’re on a team you have to win together.”
