BAGHDAD - Iraq security forces have captured a senior insurgent leader related to Izzat Ibrahim, one of the most sought-after men in the country, the government said on Sunday.
Hashim Hussein Radhan al-Jabouri, a nephew of Ibrahim’s, was captured north of Baghdad on March 7, the government said in a statement. He is believed to have commanded a militant cell in the Zaab river region of northeastern Iraq.
Jabouri, a former officer in Saddam Hussein’s intelligence services, received funding from Ibrahim to set up his network and carry out insurgent operations, according to the statement.
