A half-brother and one-time aide to former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein has been captured, according to Iraqi interim government sources.
Sabawi Ibrahim al-Hasan al-Tikriti was number 36 on the US military's list of 55 most wanted former regime members.
He was one of only around 10 who have so far escaped capture or death at the hands of US-led forces.
There is a $1m reward for him, and he is also said to be high on a list of the 29 most wanted insurgents.
An official announcement on the capture is expected soon.
No details have been given about where or when the capture took place.
