Title: Zarqawi caught?
Post by: videoholic on June 28, 2004, 06:37:39 AM
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The U.S. military says it is checking unconfirmed reports that al Qaeda ally Abu Musab al-Zarqawi has been captured in Iraq.

The Jordanian-born Zarqawi, who Washington says is its number one enemy in Iraq, is accused of masterminding a string of suicide bombings and of the execution of an American and a South Korean hostage.

The reports suggested that Zarqawi had been captured near the town of Hilla, south of Baghdad and in the Polish military area of responsibility.

"We are working on that issue," a U.S. military official said on Monday.

A Polish spokesman added: "I cannot confirm that information... When the operation is ongoing at the moment I cannot make any comment."

Washington is offering $10 million (5.5 million pounds) for information leading to the death or capture of Zarqawi.

The Poles will shaft him with a broken broom handle. Hopefully, someone is not dumb enough to take digital pictures. :p
