-
- Pro-US Shi'i sectarian militias burn
14 Sunni students with sulfuric acid, drill holes in their heads with electric
drills. Families must bribe ambulance drivers to get bodies of tortured
murdered loved ones.
-
- In a dispatch posted at 8:55pm Makkah
time Sunday night, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that fourteen bodies of Sunni
youths who had been savagely tortured and murdered were delivered on Sunday
to the Forensic Medicine Center in central Baghdad's Bab al-Mu'azzam district.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported families of the victims
area said that all 14 were college students who were about to finish up
and graduate. But on Friday, 23 June, pro-American Shi'i sectarian militiamen,
wearing the uniform of the American-backed Iraqi puppet army, arrested
them from their homes in the predominantly Hur Rajab section of Baghdad
and took them away. Their bodies showed up Sunday in the Forensic Medicine
Department where the medical experts issued a report saying that the victims
had been burned with concentrated sulfuric acid and electric drills were
used to punch holes in their skulls.
-
- The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam
reported that the families were only able to retrieve the bodies of their
sons by paying two ambulance drivers a million Iraqi dinars to get them
out of the morgue. Pro-American Shi'i sectarian militias have positioned
themselves around hospitals for about one month, ready to arrest Sunnis
who come to pick up the bodies of their loved ones. This has prevented
Sunni families from being able to recover bodies of relatives tortured
and murdered by the sectarian militias that operate with the backing of
the US occupation regime. The families in Hur Rajab therefore collected
a million Iraqi dinars as a bribe to pay the ambulance drivers so that
they might bring the bodies of the victims to a neutral place in the occupied
Iraqi capital where the relatives would be able to recover them.
