- The U.S. military is questioning some of its soldiers over the alleged
theft of part of a multi-million-dollar haul of cash found in Baghdad a
week ago, a spokesman at Central Command said on Thursday.
-
- "We have questioned soldiers involved with the disappearance
of monies found in Iraq on April 18," Lt. Mark Kitchens told Reuters.
He declined to say how many soldiers were under investigation or how much
money had allegedly been stolen.
-
- "All money found is the property of the Iraqi people,"
Kitchens said. "The riches of the nation of Iraq, whether money, oil
or art, belong to the people and we intend to ensure they get it."
