Saddam Co-conspirator’s Lawyer Kidnapped
The lawyer of one of Saddam Hussein’s co-defendants in their mass-murder trial was kidnapped from his Baghdad office on Thursday, police said.
Saadoun Sghaiyer al-Janabi, who was in the courtroom during Wednesday’s opening session of the trial, is the lawyer of Awad al-Bandar, one of seven Baath officials being tried alongside Saddam.
Ten masked gunmen pulled up outside al-Janabi‘s office in Baghdad’s eastern Shaab district in the evening, broke into the building and dragged him out, said Police Maj. Falah al-Mohammedawi of the Interior Ministry.
