BAGHDAD, March 27 (Reuters) - Baghdad provincial governor
Hussein al-Tahan said on Monday he would suspend all cooperation
with U.S. forces until an independent investigation is launched
into the killing of 20 Shi'ites in a mosque.
"Today we decided to stop all political and service cooperation
with the U.S. forces until a legal committee is formed to
investigate this incident," he told reporters, adding that the
inquiry panel should include the U.S. embassy and the Iraqi
defence ministry but not the U.S. military.
