BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- An Iraqi election group announced Friday that three of its workers had died in a drive-by shooting earlier this week.

Sayid Essa Sayid Jaafar, a spokesman for the Hezbollah Movement in Iraq, said masked gunmen in a black BMW and a Daewoo opened fire Wednesday night on the members at a market area in the Al-Shula neighborhood of Baghdad.

Sattar Jabbar Al-Mishari, head of Hezbollah's operations in Baghdad, and two office workers died. Al-Mishari had received death threats because of his participation in the election process, Jaafar said.

This election group is not affiliated with the militant movement in Lebanon or another in Iraq that also bear the Hezbollah name.
