At the Al-Bayaa police station, Sgt.
Nathan Chism, right, of the 615th
Military Police Company out of
Grafenwoehr, Germany, hands Nabil Sabeh's
pistol back to him. The
gun had been confiscated the
night before, but was returned
after he proved ownership.
A program started June 1,
for Iraqis to turn in
large caliber and illegal weapons.
Amnesty is being granted to people
turning in weapons between now
and June 14. Weapons like Sabeh's
are legal under the new rules.
A sign in front of
the Al-Bayaa police station
in Baghdad, Iraq, explains
how to turn in weapons.
