Saddam meets lawyer, aides due in Court

12月16日,伊拉克前總統(tǒng)薩達(dá)姆第一次見到了家人為他請的律師,這是他落網(wǎng)一年來首次見律師。據(jù)與薩達(dá)姆見過面的律師透露,薩達(dá)姆顯得健康強壯精神頭很足,顯然對即將開始的審判“很有準(zhǔn)備”。

Saddam meets lawyer, aides due in Court

Saddam Hussein met with a defense lawyer Thursday for the first time since his capture a year ago, days before several of his top aides are due to appear in court for hearings on alleged war crimes.

The unidentified attorney spent four hours with the 67-year-old former dictator at Saddam's undisclosed detention site, said his chief lawyer, Ziad al-Khasawneh.

"He was in good health and his morale was high and very strong," al-Khasawneh said. "He looked much better that his earlier public appearance when he was arraigned a few months ago."

The Iraqi interim government's push to get the trials for Saddam's former lieutenants under way before the Jan. 30 national elections has led to dissent even within the Iraqi Cabinet.

"Trials as symbolic as those against the dignitaries of the former regime should only start after the establishment of an Iraqi government with ballot-box legitimacy," Iraqi Justice Minister Malik Dohan al-Hassan told the Geneva daily newspaper Le Temps in an interview published Thursday.

Interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi said Tuesday that procedures could begin as early as next week before the Iraqi Special Tribunal.

Saddam will not be among the first to appear in court. But his notorious former right-hand man, Ali Hassan al-Majid — the ex-general known as "Chemical Ali" for his use of chemical weapons — is expected to appear along with 11 other former regime members at the initial investigative court hearing next week.

"The cases against his (Saddam's) henchmen are probably less complicated to prove than the cases against him," Stephen Orlofsky, a former federal judge who toured Iraq to assess its judiciary, told CNN.

He said Saddam will face a special tribunal of five judges that was created to try war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide .
