Police find 20 bodies in river north of Baghdad
September 18, 2005
BAGHDAD (Reuters) – Iraqi police found 20 bodies in a river
just north of Baghdad on Sunday, police sources said.
The authorities were trying to determine the identity of
the victims and how they were killed, the sources said.
Police have found scores of bodies of people who were shot
or beheaded over the last few months, killings which have
raised fears that Iraq could be heading toward a sectarian
civil war between Shi’ites and Sunnis.
