Thank the statists: Forty-four Sunnis killed in police station as Iraq violence spreads

The first possible signs of sectarian killings of Sunnis appeared in Iraq on Tuesday, as 44 Sunni prisoners were killed in a government-controlled police station in Baqouba, north of Baghdad, and the bodies of four young men were found shot to death and dumped on a street in a Baghdad neighbourhood controlled by Shiite militiamen.

A police source in Baqouba said the prisoners were killed after militants who had been advancing on Baqouba attacked the police station, where the men, who were suspected of having ties to the militants, were being held for questioning.

"Those people were detainees who were arrested in accordance with Article 4 terrorism offences," he said, referring to Iraqi anti-terrorism legislation that gives security forces extraordinary arrest powers. "They were killed inside the jail by the policemen before they withdrew from the station last night."

Militants aligned with the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant on Monday night took several neighbourhoods in Baqouba, which is just 70 kilometres from Baghdad, according to security officials in Baqouba.
