U.S. reportedly arrests top Shiite official in Iraq

BAGHDAD — U.S. forces arrested a top Shiite official in Iraq's government as he stepped off a plane in Baghdad, a political ally said today, and a U.S. military intelligence official linked the man to a June bombing that killed four Americans and six Iraqis.

Without naming al-Lami, the U.S. military in Iraq said the suspect arrested Wednesday evening is believed to be a senior leader of "special groups" — Iranian-backed militiamen in Iraq.
