Iraq police issue warrants for mob who killed ‘teenage gunman’

An act of violence at a demonstration divides Iraq’s anti-government protesters.

Police in Iraq has issued two arrest warrants against demonstrators following the killing of a teenager in Baghdad.

No arrests have been made so far.

Top Shia leader Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani is calling it a “heinous” crime.

Anti-government protests, which normally follow Friday prayers, were smaller than usual.
