Salahuddin (Iraqinews.com) ‐ A police officer was assassinated Sunday in Tuz Khurmatu district in Salahuddin as unknown button men continue to target coppers and citizens in retaliation for the country’s victory over terrorism last year, a security source was quoted as saying. "Unknown button men targeted in the wee hours of Sunday First-Lieutenant Asaad al-Shammari from the Rapid Response Force’s 2nd brigade, leaving him dead," the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Alghad Press. "The assailants expeditiously departed at a goodly pace immediately after the shooting," the source said, adding that a probe was opened into the incident and a manhunt was launched to arrest perpetrators of the attack. |
