Baghdad's deputy police chief was assassinated outside his home in
southern Baghdad on Monday, police said.

were shot dead as they left home in Baghdad's south Dora district.
It is the
latest in a series of assassinations of ranking Iraqi security force officials
by the insurgents before the Jan. 30 elections.
Governor of Baghdad Ali
al-Haidari and six of his bodyguards were shot dead by gunmen last Tuesday in
Baghdad.
