COALITION FORCES DETAIN NINE
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Nine suspected terrorists are in Coalition Forces custody Friday after raids to disrupt al-Qaeda in Iraq operations around the country.
Near Salman Pak, Coalition Forces detained a suspected terrorist known to associate with al-Qaeda in Iraq and lead a group responsible for kidnapping Iraqis.
Coalition Forces detained five suspected terrorists in Mosul who are allegedly involved in a group responsible for making and using vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices, and attacks on the Iraqi Army, Iraqi Police and Coalition Forces.
In Baghdad, Coalition Forces detained an individual suspected to facilitating the movement of foreign fighters and IED-making materials.
Two suspected terrorists were detained near Ramadi when Coalition Forces found them with weapons and IED-making materials.
“Coalition Forces are continuing to disrupt the networks that make and use deadly IEDs to harm Iraqis and those who are trying to build a stable Iraq,” said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, MNF-I spokesperson.
