“A special force stopped, this morning, the convoy of Vice-President of Baghdad Provincial Council Riyad Al Adad before it reached the council’s headquarters in Al Salihiya District, Central Baghdad,” the source told Alsumarianews noting that the force arrested Adad.
“The arrest was executed after Iraqi judiciary issued an arrest warrant for Adad by virtue of Anti-terrorism Law Article 4,” the source told Alsumaria on condition of anonymity.
