| IRAQ troops have found 'hostage slaughter houses' in Fallujah including CDs and records of people taken captive in the way of kidnappings and beheadings, an Iraqi military official said today. Major General Abdul Qader Mohammed Jassem Mohan, commander of Iraqi forces in the battle, said the houses were in the northern part of Fallujah, where US officials had expected to meet their toughest resistance. "We have found hostage slaughter houses in Fallujah that were used by these people (kidnappers) and the black clothing that they used to wear to identify themselves, hundreds of CDs and whole records with names of hostages," the general told reporters at a military camp near Fallujah. He was unsure if the hostage records included the names of missing British aide worker Margaret Hassan or missing French journalists Christian Chesnot and Georges Malbrunot. |
