US Contractor Killed, Says Terrorist Group
The Islamic Army in Iraq insurgent group said on Thursday it had killed a U.S. security consultant, according to an Internet statement.
The group said the man was killed because the U.S. government did not fulfil its demands, which included the payment of compensation to Iraqis affected by U.S. attacks.
The statement’s authenticity could not be verified and no pictures or video accompanied the statement. It was posted on a Web site often used by insurgents.
However, on Tuesday, a video aired by the Arab television network Al-Jazeera, claimed insurgents had kidnapped a U.S. security consultant, and displayed a blond, Western-looking man sitting with his hands tied behind his back.
The video bore the logo of the insurgent Islamic Army.
