BAGHDAD, July 16 (KUNA) -- Al-Qaeda's financial advisor Saad Abbas Al-Janabi and a former high-ranking army officer, affiliated with terrorists, were arrested by Iraqi police, said Sunday Iraqi authorities.

In a release, the Iraqi government said security forces, during a raid in southern Baghdad, has apprehended Al-Qaeda's financial advisor Saad Abbas Al-Janabi and two of his affiliates.

Al-Janabi, added the release, was the financial advisor of Abu Abdul-Aziz, one of Al-Qaeda's leaders, who was arrested on July 10.

In Baqoubah, a former high-ranking army officer, affiliated to the terrorists, was arrested while in possession of a letter thought to be sent from members of Al-Zarqawi's terrorist organization.

In press statements, Baqoubah's security commander Colonel Dhiya Ismail, without disclosing the prisoner's identity, said the letter praised the officer's role in assisting the terrorists and their actions.

The operation that led to arresting the officer and 61 other suspects, added Isamil, was part of Al-Shurouq's anti-terrorist operation in Baqoubah. (end) mhg.

Who is the army officer?

I believe his rank and name translate into "Major Screwed."

Hopefully the new government of Iraq will make public hangings of these traitors to the people of Iraq a regular event. They should televise it and leave the bodies hanging around for awhile.

Look for the guy building an above ground pool, buying a Toyata truck, and putting new tar paper on his outhouse.

I doubt they could keep that news quite, and I also doubt that coward would crawl back into Iraq from his Syrian hiding place.

I assume that the Janabi in this story is not Abdullah al-Janabi from CENTCOM's list. At least the job descriptions don't seem to match. There are several former military/intelligence guys still on this list. Sayf al-Din Fulayyih Hassan Taha al-Rawi the fromer head of the Republican Guards is still at large as well.

Abdullah al-Janabi came into mind first for me too, but the first name is different that it seems to be some one else.
