Irag spokesman: Ex-Blackwater employees not wanted in Iraq

Spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh announced that Iraq is actively pursuing Blackwater employees in the country, even if they currently work for other companies. The government will also file suit against five Blackwater employees who were cleared of charges in 2007 concerning the murder of 17 people in Nusour Square in Baghdad. Ali al-Dabbagh said that, "Investigations carried out by specialized Iraqi authorities unequivocally found that the Blackwater guards committed murder."
