Saddam lawyers demand tight security after murder

The defence team in the trial of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein has demanded that the case be delayed or moved out of Iraq, following the kidnapping and murder of one of its lawyers.

The body of Sunni Arab Saadoun Sughaiyer al-Janabi was found dumped in the street with two bullet wounds in the head, ours after gunmen dressed as security forces took him from his Baghdad office.
