Iraqi Army Soldiers, with U.S. Special Forces as advisors, detained their primary suspect without incident during the early morning operation in Baghdad, the Multi-National Corps Iraq (MNC-I) said in a statement.
The primary suspect is believed to command a rogue JAM improvised explosive device cell that is allegedly responsible for attacks on Coalition Forces. He is also alleged to have received financial support and explosively formed penetrators from Iran, which were distributed to other JAM cell members in the Bayaa and Aamel areas of Baghdad, the statement said.
