Security forces accused of bumping off Sunnis
2005-08-30
The main Sunni Arab party in Iraq accused Shia-led security forces on Monday of involvement in the execution of 37 Iraqis who were found dumped in a river last week. "The full responsibility falls upon the current government, especially the Interior Ministry, which, if not directly involved in this crime, is providing cover for the culprits," the Islamic Iraqi Party said in a statement. "Otherwise, how can a large group of individuals and vehicles move at such a late hour in the night, breaching curfew without having an official permit." Iraqi police on Thursday said they found the bodies of 37 men, each executed with a bullet to the head and dumped in a stream south of Baghdad.
The decomposing bodies, all wearing civilian clothes, were thought to have been dead about five days and had their hands bound or handcuffed.
Maybe they're tired of arresting the same guys over and over again.
