Police find 14 bodies shot in head in Baghdad

BAGHDAD (Reuters) – Baghdad police found the bodies on
Tuesday of 14 men who had been shot, execution-style, in the
head, a police source said.

Some were also blindfolded. The identities of the men found
in the Hay al-Adil district in the mainly Sunni west of the
Iraqi capital were unclear.

U.S. and Iraqi officials say dozens of people are being
killed daily in sectarian violence that has increased since the
bombing of a major Shi’ite shrine a month ago in Samarra.
