Baghdad: A suicide car bomb exploded today (Jan 24, 2005) at a checkpoint leading to Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi's party offices in Baghdad, injuring three people.

"It's a suicide car bomb," a policeman said.

The car smashed into the heavily-guard police checkpoint that blocks the road to Allawi's Iraqi National Accord party headquarters.

On January 3, a suicide car bomber killed three people in an attack on the same checkpoint.
