An Iraqi provincial governor escaped unharmed Monday in a bomb attack near the country\'s capital city Baghdad, a local police said. Qasim al-Fahdawi, governor of Anbar province, survived a roadside bomb attack against his convoy in Abu- Ghraib area, 20 km west of Baghdad, a source from Anbar\'s operations command told Xinhua on condition of anonymity. The attack occurred when al-Fahdawi was on his way to Baghdad, while three of his guards were injured in the attack, said the police source. The Iraqi security forces cordoned off the scene, the source said, adding that the police lunched an investigation into the incident. Insurgent attacks continue in the once volatile Sunni Arab area west of Baghdad that stretches through Anbar province, 100 km west of Baghdad, to Iraq\'s western borders with Syria, Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
