IED maker, eight other suspects detained in raids
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition forces detained nine suspected terrorists including an alleged improvised explosive device maker Monday morning during operations targeting the al-Qaeda in Iraq network and foreign fighter facilitators.
In Ramadi, Coalition forces captured three suspected terrorists including one who is an alleged maker of IEDs and is reportedly responsible for attacks against Coalition forces.
Four suspects were detained in Fallujah and two more suspects were detained in East Baghdad with alleged ties to al-Qaeda in Iraq associated foreign fighter facilitation.
“Al-Qaeda and foreign terrorists have no interest in a peaceful Iraq,” said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver. “Terrorists captured will be prosecuted for their crimes under the Iraqi justice system.”
