Iraqis capture al-Qaida shrine bomber

Iraq’s National Security adviser today said authorities had arrested a key al-Qaida suspect – a Tunisian – wanted for the bombing of the Shiite Golden Dome shrine last February in Samarra.

Mouwafak al-Rubaie said the ringleader in the operation, an Iraqi he identified as Haitham Sabah Shaker Mohammed al-Badri, was still on the run.
