Saddam defence team demands security
The body of a defence lawyer in Saddam Hussein’s mass murder trial was found dumped in the street with two bullet wounds in the head hours after gunmen dragged him from his office, terrorising the defence team, who today demanded the trial be further postponed or even moved out of Iraq.
Four American service members were killed in insurgent attacks, bringing to 19 the number killed this week, including last Saturday when Iraq held a landmark referendum on a new constitution.
