Footprints Recruiting, the Vancouver-based teacher-recruitment company, announced Thursday that the teacher murdered in Abu Dhabi is Ibolya Ryan. In addition, the Interior Ministry of the United Arab Emirates announced it has arrested a suspect, and that the Emirati woman believed to be behind the murder also planned to bomb an American doctor's home.
