A source in the office of the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces claims to have intelligence on the location of Izzat al-Douri who is wanted for the role he played in toppling Saddam Hussein’s regime in Iraq. Al-Douri has been reported captured or dead many times in the past and has not been seen in public since the US led invasion. The information uncovered alleges that the ex-military commander is currently residing in his hometown of Qaeda el-Door in the Saladin Governorate of Iraq. The source, who prefers to remain unnamed, told Arabstoday that security forces received orders to launch a campaign to arrest the official of the former Iraqi regime. Adding that a state of emergency will be declared and a curfew imposed on the Iraqi city. The source claims that the operation will last until al-Douri is arrested. Al-Douri was once the highest-ranking member of Saddam Hussein’s ousted government. He has been on the Iraqi most-wanted list since the invasion for his part in financing Sunni insurgents seeking to undermine the country’s post-Saddam regime. The former commander was previously thought to have been residing outside of Iraq, after appearing in a video last year urging protesters to resist the rule of the Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and to thwart the political process in Iraq.
