Gunmen, bombs kill six in Iraq
[Pak Daily Times] Bombs and gunnies killed six people in Iraq on Sunday, four of them from the same family, security sources said.The four family members -- parents and their two daughters in their 20s -- were all shot in the head overnight by gunnies who spared a third, seven-year-old daughter. "This was probably a terrorist crime, which we are investigating," said Storied Baghdad security front man Major General Qassim Atta. Also on Sunday, magnetic "sticky bombs" attached to cars killed two civilians and maimed another in Kirkuk, ... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time... senior police officials said. In the western part of Kirkuk, police said they found the corpse of the leader of an anti-al Qaeda militia who was kidnapped a week ago. The UN envoy to Iraq, Ad Melkert, said this month that violent incidents still occur on average 25 times per day. Posted by: Fred 2011-04-18 |
