LAWFUEL – Saddam hanging video – Thousands of Sunni Arabs vented their anger on Tuesday over Saddam Hussein’s execution as the Iraqi government promised an investigation into illicitly filmed footage of Shiite officials taunting him on the gallows.
“Two officials were holding mobile phone cameras,” said a deputy prosecutor in the case for which Saddam was hanged and is the chief prosecutor in a second trial that will continue against his aides for genocide against the Kurds.
Faroon challenged government claims that those who filmed the event were guards, saying they were senior officials.
