HSI posted the arrest September 13 on X, noting he had settled inside the US after serving the deposed dictator.
- Raad Alanbagi held a high-ranking post inside Saddam Hussein's Iraqi intelligence service, HSI said.
- Homeland Security Investigations announced his arrest in a September 13, 2026 post on X.
- Alanbagi had been living inside the United States before federal agents took him into custody.
Why it matters: A government that screens who enters still failed at knowing who already lived inside its borders.
