IA detains suspects connected to deaths of U.S. Marines
 BALAD, Iraq -- The 9th Iraqi Army Division detained two suspected al-Qaeda in Iraq terrorists connected to the deaths of four U.S. Marines in an operation conducted west of Tarmiyah, approximately 32 kilometers north of Baghdad, July 18.The two suspects are allegedly linked to various AQI wings. The individuals are said to be responsible for numerous murders of Iraqi citizens and Coalition forces. Intelligence reports connect the suspects to a May suicide vest attack that resulted in the deaths of four U.S. Marines and several sheiks during a tribal engagement meeting. Reports also indicate that these two suspected terrorists are associated with an AQI wing that manipulates young boys to become suicide bombers. One of the suspects is believed to be a recruiter for this wing. Posted by: GolfBravoUSMC 2008-08-01 |
