Iranians behind Britons' kidnap - US
Baghdad - US commanders suspect that an Iraqi militant cell with links to Iran's Revolutionary Guards was behind last week's abduction of five British contractors, a senior military official said on Tuesday.
The five, a management consultant and his four bodyguards, were kidnapped by a large team of gunmen dressed in Iraqi police uniforms on May 29 during a visit to an Iraqi finance ministry office in east Baghdad.
A senior US officer, speaking on condition of anonymity, told AFP that investigations pointed to the operation having been carried out by members of the "Khazali network", an Iraqi extremist cell with links to Iranian forces.
