Authorities in Iraq have charged a man from Britain of murdering of two of his colleagues with security contractor ArmorGroup. Daniel Fitzsimons is suspected of murdering fellow Brit Paul McGuigan and Australian Darren Hoare. Three men were shot in the incident yesterday, which occured in ArmorGroup's Baghdad compound. As well as the two fatally injured, an Iraqi guard was wounded. According to a spokesman with Iraq's interior ministry the group was drinking when an argument began and one man opened fire on the others. The men worked in the capital's diplomatic zone, which features heavy security. Fitzsimons appeared before a court today, where the prosecution informed the judge they had all the evidence required for a trial. It could mark the first trial of a Westerner since local authorities assumed responsibility for policing foreign contractors earlier this year.
