Framed documents officially transferring the Cropper Theater Internment Facility from United States Force-Iraq to the Government of Iraq bear the signatures of Maj. Gen. Jerry Cannon, United States Forces-Iraq deputy commanding general for detainee operations and provost marshal general and Dara Nur al-Deen, the Iraq minister of justice. The documents were signed at a ceremony July 15 at Camp Cropper. The Cropper TIF, the last major U.S. run detention facility in Iraq, currently houses approximately 1,500 detainees being held on Government of Iraq arrest warrants, detention orders or convictions. The facility was used by U.S. forces for the care and custody of detainees since April 2003 and can hold up to 4,000 prisoners. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. 1st Class Roger M. Dey)(Released)
