Saddam moving around Iraq, claims opposition leader

SADDAM HUSSEIN remains in Iraq and is moving around the country, the leader of a US-backed Iraqi opposition group said in an interview broadcast yesterday.

Ahmad Chalabi, who heads the Iraqi National Congress, told BBC radio that his group was tracking Saddam around Iraq, but with a delay of at least half a day on his latest position.

"We have received information about his movements and the movements of his sons," he told the BBC.
