Story

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Friends,</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">After watching our Unreported World documentary about the work of the Baghdad Bomb Squad, and the plight of injured former officer Mohammed Jabbar, many viewers asked if they could help this remarkable man who&nbsp;lost his right arm and leg trying to warn civilians away from a roadside bomb.&nbsp;The support currently available to those wounded&nbsp;officers like Mohammed and bereaved families&nbsp;of officers killed in action is wholly inadequate, with many of them living in considerable poverty.&nbsp;If you would like to help Mohammed and others like him you can make a donation here</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.channel4.com/programmes/unreported-world/episode-guide/series-2012/episode-2">You can watch my Unreported World film here</a></p> <p class="MsoNormal">See also: <a href="http://www.channel4.com/programmes/unreported-world/articles/the-making-of-baghdad-bomb-squad">Mohammed Jabbar&rsquo;s story</a></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your support</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Channel Four News</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
