BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) --
The man chosen to lead the Iraqi National Guard in a province in the
so-called Sunni triangle has been arrested by U.S. forces on the
suspicion that he has ties to insurgent fighters, a U.S. Army
spokesman said.
Gen. Talib Abed Ghayib Najm was named to head the National Guard in
the Diyala province just two weeks ago, and had not yet been confirmed
by the Iraqi Ministry of Defense, the spokesman for the U.S. Army's
First Infantry Division said told CNN.
Gen. Najm was in U.S. custody Sunday.
