SULEIMANIYAH: Security forces in the autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan region arrested opposition figure Lahur Sheikh Jangi on Friday after several hours of armed clashes, a security official told AFP.
Jangi, a member of the influential Talabani family, which is one of two ruling clans in the autonomous region, “surrendered” while “his brother Bolad was injured in the leg and was arrested,” the official said, requesting anonymity due to the sensitivity of the subject.
