Early voting begins in Iraq; nine killed

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Patients, soldiers and prisoners began voting Monday in parliamentary elections, a few days ahead of the general population, while insurgent violence killed at least nine people and wounded more than two dozen, police said.

To prevent militants from disrupting Thursday's main balloting, the government said it will close its borders, extend a nighttime curfew and restrict domestic travel starting Tuesday.

In a development that could impact the general election, 13 prisoners who were apparent victims of abuse were discovered at an overcrowded detention center run by the Interior Ministry, Iraqi and U.S. military officials said.

Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari ordered an investigation into what he described as an "unhealthy phenomenon." A similar case surfaced last month.

"There is a committee following the case. My military adviser is touring all of Iraq's jails to know if there are such cases," al-Jaafari said during a news conference. "I will not allow such dealing with any prisoner."

U.S. officials hope the new parliament that will be elected can help quell the insurgency so American forces can begin heading home. The 275-member assembly 錕斤拷 the first fully constitutional parliament since the 2003 ouster of Saddam Hussein 錕斤拷 will choose a new government that U.S. officials hope can win the confidence of the disaffected Sunni Arab minority 錕斤拷 the foundation of the insurgency.

"The reasons for the presence of the multinational forces will start to decrease," Shiite Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari said of the elections.

But he said that a timetable for their withdrawal would also depend on the ability of Iraqi forces to take over security.

"We want the multinational forces to leave, but we don't want security to disappear as well," al-Jaafari said. "When the Iraqi hands are in complete control of the security situation in Iraq, then we will tell the multinational forces, 'Thank you. Please leave the Iraqi lands."

A statement circulated Monday and believed issued by an insurgent group said fighting would continue regardless of the vote, according to residents of a Sunni neighborhood.
