THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, JAN.18. The State police are learned to have submitted a preliminary report to the Government based on a Special Branch inquiry into reports that a Kochi-based job placement agency was recruiting `retired army personnel' for `guard duty with the Army at Iraq'. According to top police officials, a recruitment agency identified as `S.N. International' run by one `Prabhakaran' of Kollam had interviewed 78 persons for the job in Kochi recently. The police are verifying whether all those interviewed were retired army personnel.
