More hostages taken in Iraq

2004-07-29 17:31

Dubai - An Islamist group in Iraq said on Thursday it was holding four Jordanians and called on the people of the kingdom to pressure their government to end its support for the US-led coalition, in a videotape aired by Dubai Television.

"We have taken as guests four of our brethren from Jordan in order to put pressure on their government and we don't want to turn from being hosts into other things," said a statement from the group calling itself "Death Squad of Mujahedeen of Iraq".

The four captives were shown on the tape, visibly nervous and sweating as they held up their passports and identity cards.

"We urge our people in Jordan to exert pressure by all means in order to put an end to the Jordanian government's support for the US occupation forces," the statement said.
