| BAGHDAD: A roadside bomb in northern Iraq killed three people Monday, while in Baghdad gunmen wounded two government officials in failed assassination attempts, officials said. Police Brig. Gen. Sarhat Qadir said the blast struck a car carrying four people near the city of Kirkuk, some 290 km north of Baghdad. One person was wounded in the explosion. In Baghdad, two government officials were wounded in separate assassination attempts, police and hospital officials said. Gunmen shot judge Munir Hadad in his hand during a drive-by shooting on a highway in central Baghdad. Hadad served as the spokesman for the Iraqi High Tribunal formed to prosecute Saddam and his aides. Also, senior Finance Ministry official Mohammed Ali Al-Safi was wounded in western Baghdad after assailants opened fire on his car. |
