Five top Iraqi officers arrest
Five top Iraq police officers have been arrested in connection to the largest mass abduction since the start of the Iraq war.
Hundreds of US and Iraqi army and police forces swept through Baghdad in armoured vehicles on Tuesday in the search for more than 100 government employees who were kidnapped by militants wearing police uniforms. The kidnapping took place at a research institute of the ministry of research and higher education in central Baghdad.
Confirming the incident, Minister of Research and Higher Education Abd Tiyab Al-Ojaili said in a press statement that a large number of vehicles, some with tinted glass, had raided the Scholarships and Cultural Relations Directorate claiming to be police special forces.
After clashes with security guards, the gunmen managed to enter the building and kidnap over 100 male employees and researchers, he said.
The kidnappers left behind the women in a locked room and took their mobile phones, the minister added.
Al-Ojaili also said he had asked the prime minister last Thursday to secure several educational buildings.
"This operation was planned to destroy the higher education process in Iraq," al-Ojaili said, noting the hostages were of various ethnicities and religions and demanding that all universities be shut down until the government could secure them.
Officials believe the abductions are a sectarian attack. The kidnappers are suspected to be Shi'ite gunmen while the Education Ministry is governed by a Sunni group. The gunmen claimed to be fighting corruption as members of The Commission on Public Integrity.
