A TOP aide to al-Qaeda’s frontman in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, has been arrested, the Iraqi government said today.
“The terrorist Mohammed Najm Ibrahim, alias Mohammed Najm, who with one of his brothers runs a Zarqawi cell, is responsible for the beheading of several citizens and for attacks against Iraqi security forces,” it said in a statement.
Ibrahim was arrested in the town of Baquba, north of Baghdad, it added, without giving the date of his arrest.
