No officials were immediately available for comment on the report.
The radio said those arrested included the imam of a mosque and that one suspect might be linked to an attack on an Italian military police base in southern Iraq.
Suicide bombers devastated the Italian base in November 2003, killing 18 Italians and nine Iraqis.
