Iraq said a woman detained in Lebanon is not the wife of Daesh leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Lebanese officials said on Tuesday that the army had picked up a woman named Saja al-Dulaimi after she tried to enter from Syria with forged papers, the BBC reported.
But the Iraqi interior ministry said on Wednesday that while Dulaimi was from a family of known militants, she was not married to Baghdadi.
Unofficially, the Lebanese army said it still thinks it is holding his wife.
A source told the BBC it believed the woman was a current or former spouse of Daesh leader.
The Iraqi interior ministry said Baghdadi's wives were believed to be named Asma Fawzi Mohammed al-Dulaimi and Isra Mahal al-Qaisi
