2007-10-18
(KUNA) -- Police discovered a beheaded body loaded with explosives near Kirkuk, while local authorities in Mosul are imposing a curfew after an attack targeted a police center in the city, Iraqi police said on Tuesday.

Kirkuk's police Brigadier Sarhad Qadir told KUNA that police patrols discovered the beheaded body near Al-Hawd village in Abbasyia district and beneath it there was an improvised bomb.

On another front, two improvised bombs exploded targeting a pickup vehicle on the main road connecting Kirkuk and Mosul cities causing injury to the driver and damage to his car.

Meanwhile, local authorities in Mosul said they have imposed a curfew on vehicles inside the city starting Tuesday afternoon and until further notice. The curfew is a precautionary measure after a suicide attack which targeted a police center killing and injuring around 60 people.
