BAGHDAD / IraqiNews.com: A Baghdad security source has said on Thursday that the garage of Baghdad’s Governorate found a suspected Improvised Explosive Device (IED) in a car belonging to a police officer working with the Iraqi Interior Ministry. “An explosives unit have headed towards the garage to dismantle an IED attached to the police officer’s car, whilst the street leading to the garage passing by the Iranian Embassy had been closed, and the explosive charge was dismantled,” the security source told IraqiNews.com News Agency.
