Another Special Groups Money Man Caught
BAGHDAD -- Coalition forces dealt another blow to the Special Groups criminal network Friday morning as they captured a suspected senior Iranian-trained financier and five other suspected criminals in an operation in Abu Tabrah, about 17 km northeast of Baghdad.

Intelligence sources led Coalition forces to the location of a suspected Special Groups financier who is assessed to be responsible for the distribution of Iranian lethal aid to Special Group networks throughout the Ghazaliyah and Shu'la areas of Baghdad. As a Special Groups leader, he is also suspected of directing explosively-formed penetrator and improvised explosive device attacks against Iraqi and Coalition forces.

Coalition forces approached the targeted individual's location where he identified himself to forces as the wanted suspect. He was then detained along with five associates without incident.
He learned. Much better to put his mitts in the ear than to swear that the coppers will never take him alive ...
Intelligence sources as well as Special Groups suspects already in custody report that the criminal organization is struggling financially, since most of their leadership fled to Iran before the Iraqi Army's push into Sadr City in May. By capturing this suspected senior financier and his five associates, Coalition forces continue to dismantle the Special Groups network.
