WASSIT / Aswat al-Iraq: Wassit's Quick Response Department personnel arrested three wanted men in the northern part of the province on charges of attempting to murder a cleric and his two sons, a local security source said on Friday.
"The warranted apprehensions took place upon intelligence tip-offs. Initial investigations with the three arrested persons proved their involvement in the armed operation on Sheikh Shujairi," the source added. Wassit province lies 180 km southeast of the Iraqi capital Baghdad. | |
