| 2004-07-27 |
| A follower of alleged Al Qaeda leader in Iraq Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi was arrested in the northern oil city of Kirkuk, along with a suspected local kidnapping ring, the US military said on Tuesday. The suspect was arrested on Monday night, Colonel Lloyd Miles of the 25th Infantry Division told reporters during a press conference at the US military base at Kirkuk's airport. He provided no further details about the detainee. Miles also said that troops arrested eight Iraqis suspected of involvement in a recent wave of tit-for-tat kidnappings between Kurds and Arabs. The ethnic tinderbox of Kirkuk is the scene of frequent violence between Arabs, Kurds and Turkmen. |
