Suspected suicide bomb facilitator arrested in Doura

BAGHDAD – Multi-National Division – Baghdad Soldiers arrested a suspected suicide bomb facilitator during a raid in the Rashid District of the Iraqi capital Feb. 9.

Numerous tips led Soldiers from Company C, 2nd Battalion, 4th Infantry Regiment, 10th Mountain Division, Multi-National Division to detain the alleged extremist.

He was found with five Iraqi women in a home in Doura. One of the women is suspected of being a possible suicide bomber-in-training.

The man was taken to a Coalition Detention Facility for questioning. Two of the women were also detained for further questioning.

At this time, there is no indication this event is linked to the Feb. 1 bombings in crowded Baghdad markets.

Although you do have to wonder if there IS a connection, what with the recent raid and arrest of the acting director of the al Rashid hospital and the bomber in training being a woman. The question is - was she mentally disabled as well?
