Evidence backs Sunni claim of Shi’ite death squads, says US

GUNMEN wearing Iraqi special forces uniforms yesterday kidnapped a wealthy banker and his son after killing five of their bodyguards.

Meanwhile, police found the bodies of three men who had been shot execution-style in northern Baghdad.

Sunni Arabs have been complaining for months that kidnappings and murder by Shi’ite-led commandos operated by the Interior Ministry are driving many Sunnis into the ranks of the insurgents.
