ANBAR/ Aswat al-Iraq: Chairman of Iraqi Sahwa (Awakening) Conference Sheikh Ahmed Abu Risha denied that those negotiated with the government were representing Anbar demonstrators, calling the government to negotiate in the sit-square in the province.

Sheikh Abu Risha told Aswat al-Iraq that some personalities negotiated with Premier Maliki "do not represent the demonstrators in the province, because they are members in Dawa Party".

He added that the demonstrators formed specialized committees, stressing not to permit other sources to talk in the name of the protestors without adequate authorization.

 Since 22 December 2012, Anbar province witnessed massive demonstrations and sit-in, in addition to Ninewa, Salahal-Din, Diala, Kirkuk and Baghdad demanding the release of innocent detainees and prisoners, while others called for toppling Maliki's government.

Ramadi, center of the province, lies 110 km west of the capital, Baghdad.
