BAGHDAD, March 29 (Xinhua) -- The crisis group set up to run Iraq's northern province of Nineveh said on Friday that two people responsible for the deadly sinking of a ferryboat in Tigris River were arrested.

Obeid Ibrhim Ali and his son Ryyan Obeid Ibrahim, owners of a tourist island that the ferryboat headed to, were arrested in the city of Erbil, capital of Iraq's semi-autonomous region of Kurdistan, in coordination with the Kurdish regional authorities, Najim al-Jubouri, commander of Nineveh's Operations Command, told Xinhua.

The crisis group, comprised of a university professor and two military commanders, was formed a week ago by Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi to temporarily run Nineveh following the ferry sinking incident, after the parliament sacked the governor and his two deputies.

The ferryboat carrying dozens of people capsized on March 21 when crossing from the bank of the river to the Um al Rabeein island in the north of Mosul, provincial capital of Nineveh.
