Daesh (ISIS) Monday claimed responsibility for the assassination of a candidate in Iraq's parliamentary election just days ahead of the polls.
Faruq Zarzur al-Juburi, a candidate loyal to Vice President Ayad Allawi, was shot dead by gunmen outside his home near Mosul, the former Daesh bastion in northern Iraq, a local official said.
