Iraqi civilian killed, another two injured in left-over bomb explosion
2006-06-22
(KUNA) -- An Iraqi civilian was killed Wednesday and another two got injured when a left-over-bomb exploded in Batofa area near the Iraqi-Turkey borders. An Iraq police source told Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) that the bomb belonged to the dissolved army of the ousted Saddam Hussein regime. He said that the lives of Batofa residents have been at risk by piles of weapons and mines left by the ousted regime, which have already killed or injured several civilians.

Meanwhile, Iraqi police source told KUNA that Iraqi security forces mistakenly killed a government official in Baghdad. The source said the police opened fire at the official when they suspected that the official, who was speeding in his car, was attacking an Australian convoy. As a result, the official was killed and two other passengers in his car were injured.
