Group says it executed Iraqi troops
 The purported Islamist group Ansar al-Sunna has killed 15 members of the Iraqi army, according to a statement published on its internet site. "After having announced the kidnapping of 15 Iraqi apostate soldiers in the region of Hiyt, and after their interrogation, they confessed to the crimes they committed with the crusader forces against civilians and against the mujahidin," said the statement. "They were executed with bullets so that they serve as an example," added the statement, whose authenticity could not be verified. On 15 January, the group claimed in an internet statement that it seized the 15 Iraqi national guardsmen west of Baghdad.
