Lions of Islam Assassinate Iraqi Police Officer
Masked gunmen assassinated a high-ranking Iraqi police officer on Sunday in southwestern Baghdad and wounded his bodyguards, police said. Col. Yassin Ibrahim Jawad was heading to his work at 8 a.m. when the assailants, driving a white Opel sedan, attacked his car in Baghdad's neighborhood of Al-Baya, police Col. Sa'ad Abdul Razaq said. Nadiyah Khalid, a doctor at the capital's al-Yarmouk hospital, said that one of the injured was in critical situation. "We received three patients," she said. "One was dead, one is critical and one is semi-stable."Posted by: Fred 2004-12-26 |
