2006-06-17
(KUNA) -- A high ranking Iraqi police officer was assassinated in front of his house by unidentified gunmen on Friday in Al Mosul City, Northern Iraq, an Interior Ministry source said. Separately, a North Gas Company employee was assassinated by anonymous militants near Kirkuk. Efforts were made to revive the employee but he died and the body was taken to the coroner's office.
"Mahmoud! There's a guy here to read the meter!"
"I'm busy right now. Just kill him."
In the meantime, explosive devices were found and diffused in different parts of the city, Interior Ministry source said. In other developments, two mortar shells struck Iraqi Army facilities near Wadi Al-Zgheitoun, without causing damage. Another explosive device exploded in front of a house in Al-Huwija but there was only minor damage to the house's fence and no casualties.(
