Iraq group says it has kidnapped US contractor
An Iraqi militant group said Saturday it kidnapped a US civilian contractor last month and was negotiating the release of the body of another.
A senior leader of Shi'ite militia Asaib al-Haq, or Leagues of Righteousness, said the abducted contractor, whom he did not name, was seized because the government was not keeping a promise to free Asaib al-Haq supporters from prison. (Reuters)
