BAGHDAD, Dec 29 (KUNA) -- Iraqi law-enforcers have discovered a large arms
cache at the house of one of the bodyguards of Chairman of Iraqi Accordance
Front Adnan Al-Duleimi.
The arms cache includes large quantities of weapons, explosives and mortar
shells, Spokesman of Baghdad Law-Enforcement Plan Brigadier Qassem Atta told
reporters here Saturday.
The house of Al-Duleimi's bodyguard Riyadh Mahmoud Al-Falahi is close to
Al-Duleimi's in Al-Adel district, west Baghdad, Atta pointed out.
Al-Fallahi's house belongs originally to an Iraqi immigrant family but was
given to the bodyguard by Al-Duleimi's son Mekki who is being held in police
custody in connection with a terrorism charge, the senior police officer
disclosed.
Atta played a film showing the security operation against Al-Fallahi's
house and the munitions seized.
Mekki was arrested by the Iraqi law enforcement agencies in connection with
the murder of one of the militiamen of the pro-government Awakening councils
and the seizure of two explosives-laden cars near Al-Duleimi's house early in
December. (end)
