Senior Iraqi policeman assassinated in Mosul
2005-03-21
A suicide bomber killed the head of the Iraqi police anti-corruption department in the northern city of Mosul on Sunday and later insurgents attacked his funeral procession, killing two people, officials said. A US lieutenant-colonel said the bomber detonated explosives strapped to his body in the building where Brigadier Walid Kashmoula worked. Later insurgents fired guns at his funeral procession, killing two people and wounding at least 10 others, some seriously, hospital officials said. Dozens of cars were in the procession in western Mosul, following the vehicle carrying his body to the grave.
