US forces arrest government forces, find bunker

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - U.S. troops on Sunday arrested at least 40 Iraqi Interior Ministry forces who were holding 17 foreigners in a secret bunker complex, political sources said.

A Reuters reporter who approached the bunker complex on Sunday was turned away by Shi'ite militiamen.

U.S. troops last year found 173 mostly Sunni Arab prisoners held in a secret Interior Ministry bunker. They showed signs of torture and malnourishment.
