Colleagues say Sadr MP dies after attack in Baghdad


    BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A member of parliament from anti-American cleric Moqtada al Sadr's bloc died after a bomb struck his car in Baghdad Thursday, fellow politicians said.

    At least two members of Iraq's parliament told Reuters that Saleh al-Ugaili was pronounced dead in a Baghdad hospital following the roadside bomb that exploded near his convoy earlier in the day.
