BAGHDAD, Iraq — The largest Sunni Arab bloc in parliament will stop attending the legislative meetings until a kidnapped colleague is released, the head of the group said Sunday.
Lawmaker Tayseer al-Mashhadani and seven of her bodyguards were kidnapped Saturday at a checkpoint in a Shiite area of the capital. One of her bodyguards escaped. Adnan al-Dulaimi, head of the Iraqi Accordance Front, called other members of parliament to do the same.
