Two Senior ISIS Commanders Arrested in Kirkuk
2023-08-08


Iraq's Federal Intelligence Agency has apprehended two senior persons with links to the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more.

"Based on accurate intelligence information, intelligence teams in Kirkuk were able to apprehend two individuals under the provisions of Article Four of the Anti-Terrorism Law," the agency said in a blurb.

The two detainees, according to the blurb , held critical roles within the ISIS network.

"One was responsible for what is known as the 'Islamic Police' and was in charge of rigging and blowing up the houses of security forces members. The other participated in battles against Peshmerga forces, dressed in Kandahari attire," the agency statement read.

Upon investigation and confrontation with evidence and information, the defendants openly admitted to their criminal activities, the statement concluded.
