Coalition detains alleged AQI leader, three other suspects in Mosul

BAGHDAD – Coalition forces captured a reported al-Qaeda in Iraq leader and detained three additional suspected terrorists during operations in Mosul Tuesday.

In a precision operation in Mosul, Coalition forces captured an alleged AQI leader. The suspect is believed to be in charge of an illegal terrorist court system in the area, and is also suspected of involvement in a local bombing cell.

Also in Mosul, Coalition forces targeted a terrorist responsible for kidnappings, assassinations and the movement of suicide bombers. The ground force cleared three separate locations, detaining three suspected terrorists.

“Al-Qaeda in Iraq continues to reject the rule of law established by the Iraqi government,” said Cmdr. Scott Rye, MNF-I spokesman. “The Iraqi people do not embrace the terrorists’ extremist values and criminal behavior, and we continue to work closely with Iraqi citizens and security forces to identify and capture those who ignore the rule of law.”
