Manaf Abd al-Rahim al-Rawi (Arabic: مناف عبد الرحيم الراوي) (October 4, 1975 – April 1, 2013) was a senior Iraqi leader of Islamic State of Iraq (ISI), acting as its "governor" for Baghdad province.[2]
Al-Rawi was arrested on March 11, 2010 by Iraqi security forces.[3] Iraqi government sources claimed al-Rawi was responsible for planning multiple-vehicle bombings in Baghdad.[4] Under interrogation, he reportedly gave authorities information which led to the killing of the group's top two leaders, Abu Ayyub al-Masri and Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, in April 2010.[5] [6] [7] He was later convicted of terrorism and sentenced to death. Al-Rawi and three other ISI leaders were hanged in Baghdad on April 1, 2013.[8]
