Iraqi 'spies' beheaded in city street
Rebels waylaid two Iraqi Shiites in the insurgent stronghold Ramadi today and beheaded them in the street.
The victims were spotted coming from a US base in the centre of the city, 70 miles west of Baghdad and were stopped by gunmen, according to a hand-written statement left on the bodies.
The statement claimed the two men, who were from the Baghdad Shiite neighbourhood of Sadr City, confessed to spying for the Americans.
“These are the rotten remains of two rejectionists (Shiites) who came to the city of Ramadi to support the occupying enemy,” the statement said. “The fate of every agent will be slaughter.”
It identified the two as Ahmed Alwan Hussein and Ali Hussein Jassim.
Four other bodies were found earlier in the day in Ramadi, with notes claiming they were collaborators.
