Dr. Kamal Sayid Qadir released in Kurdistan today 25.1.2006

Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari informed Austrian special envoy to Iraq Gudrun Harrer Wednesday of the lawyer's release.

"This shows that the decision to have Austrian representation in Baghdad was right," Plassnik said.

With Harrer's presence on the ground since January 1, "we can effectively protect the interests of Austria and Austrian citizens," she added.
