In a vital development, the Iraqi intelligence is said to have captured Abdul Nasser Qardash, said to be one of the possible successors to former ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, reports Hindustan Times.
As per reports, the suspected terrorist was first identified by Iraqi Intelligence Agency as current ISIS commander Abu Ibrahim al-Qurashi, but the military later clarified that the person in custody was actually Abdul Nasser Qardash or Abdel Nasser Qirdash.
Qardash is believed to be the highest ranking ISIS terrorist to even be taken into custody. Iraqi intelligence also put out a photo of the capture terrorist.
The Islamic State had last year confirmed the death of its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, days after US President Donald Trump said that the terrorist blew himself up during a raid by the American military.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
