By Raheem Salman BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A series of explosions killed 18 people at a Shi'ite political organization's rally in Iraq on Friday, police and medical sources said. The militant group, Asaib Ahl Haq (League of the Righteous), introduced its candidates for elections on April 30 at the rally in eastern Baghdad. Its leader Sheik Qais Khazaali denies the allegations but says his movement defends Iraq against terrorism.
