ERBIL (Kurdistan24) - A medical source reported to Sumaria News that the head of the security guard team at CRG, contracted by British Petroleum (BP), has died in a suspicious accident at the Rumaila oil field in Basra.

The source revealed that the head of the guard team was found hanging from a wire at the oil field.

The incident occurred in the middle of the night, prompting security forces to launch a thorough investigation to ascertain whether the incident was a suicide or murder.
