| (AKI) - Iraqi police arrested two female would-be suicide bombers on Friday in two separate operations in the volatile province of Diyala, northeast of the capital, Baghdad. "Policemen on Friday carried out a security raid in al-Ameen region in central Baquba, where they arrested Nedal Abdul Wahed al-Azawi who was preparing to implement a suicide attack at the centre of the city," an unnamed official police source to Iraqi news agency told Voices of Iraq. "Police forces also launched another operation in Abi Saida district in Muqdadiya, east of Baquba, where they arrested Rabieea Kazem Mohamed, a suspected suicide bomber," the source added. Diyala province, a mix of Sunnis and Shias, extends as far as the Iranian border and is considered to be an Al-Qaeda stronghold. |
