Louay Omar Mohammed al-Taei is an Iraqi serial killer and medical doctor accused of murdering wounded policemen, soldiers and officials in Kirkuk while pretending to treat them.

According to police, Louay administered anti-coagulants to pro-Coalition forces brought into the hospital for treatment, to excaberate their bleeding and causing a number of deaths.[1] A police investigation revealed that he had killed 43 people from October 2005 to March 2006.[2] He claimed to be recruited into Jamaat Ansar al-Sunna in August 2005.[2]

He was arrested after Malla Yassin was arrested in early 2006, and confessed to being the leader of an insurgent cell that included Louay.[1]
