Probe on authenticity of Saddam’s leg
What is purportedly the left leg of the bronze statue, which was toppled by US troops in April last year in one of the most repeated images of the invasion of Iraq, is being auctioned by the Azubo.de website.
The site claims the leg was sold by British troops to a scrap metal dealer in the western German state of Lower Saxony who sold it on to its owner, identified on the website only by the pseudonym Paul9111.
