The Iraqi Islamic Party has issued a statement condemning the killing of Abdul-Bari Ibrahim in a village near Tal Afar, 260 miles northwest of Baghdad.
The party is led by Iraqi Vice President Tariq al-Hashemi.
The police spoke on condition of anonymity Monday because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
