Injured Zarqawi treated in Ramadi hospital

LONDON: Abu Musab Al Zarqawi, the man most wanted by US-led forces in Iraq, was wounded and treated briefly at a hospital in Iraq last week before he disappeared with his men, a British newspaper reported Sunday. The doctor who claims to have treated him told an Iraqi reporter in the western city of Ramadi that Zarqawi was bleeding heavily when he was brought into the hospital on Wednesday, the Sunday Times reported. The doctor was able to recognise the Jordanian-born militant linked to Al Qaeda network by photographs he had seen of him on television, the newspaper said. afp
