Hospital officials said two pickup trucks filled with body parts were brought to the morgue."I was waiting near a shop to lift some boxes, when I saw the owner of the shop collapse,"
said Sattar Hussein, 22, who works in the market. "I helped him inside the shop, but he was
already dead. The next thing I felt was pain in my left shoulder and some people rushing me
to the hospital."
Ali Hamid, 25, who owns a shop in the market, said he was selling soft drinks when the blast
knocked him unconscious.
"The next thing I remember is some people putting me in a pickup with two dead bodies and
rushing me to the hospital," he said. He called the attack "a terrorist act aimed at creating
more sectarian tension and strife."
No group claimed responsibility for the attack, which followed allegations by Sunni politicians
that Shiite militias have resumed their campaign to expel Sunnis from Baiyaa.
Most of the shops in the market were believed owned by Shiites.
