BAGHDAD, June 20 (KUNA) -- Five Iraqi policemen were injured when a
booby-trapped car exploded at a police checkpoint southeast of Mosul city,
said a security source Friday.
The source which preferred anonymity told KUNA that the car, which was
driven by a suicide bomber, exploded at a checkpoint for the police in
Al-Wehda area in Mosul, adding that police opened fire on the car before it
reached the checkpoint, "a heroic act which prevented more casualties and
damages from occurring."
Meanwhile, spokesman for the Defense Ministry at Nineveh governorate
Brigadier Khaled Abdulsttar told KUNA that the body of a woman and her child
dumped in the area of Zanjeyali west of Mosul city was found while five wanted
criminals were arrested in Al-Medan area.
Regarding the murder of the woman and her child, the source pointed fingers
at the radical organization of the Islamic State of Iraq, saying that similar
incidents have occurred for the purpose of spreading fear among Mosul
residents. (end)
