Hussein's Half-brother And Co-defendant Hanged
Barzan Ibrahim, Saddam's half brother and former intelligence chief, and Awad Hamed al-Bandar head of Iraq's Revolutionary Court, were found guilty along with Saddam in the killing of 148 Shiite Muslims after a 1982 assassination attempt on the former leader in the town of Dujail north of Baghdad. They've now joined Saddam in hell.
From Foxnews:
Government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh confirmed the executions, saying those attending the hangings included a prosecutor, a judge and a physician.The official video actually shows Barzan Ibrahim lying headless below the gallows with his severed head lying several yards away.He also said Ibrahim's head was severed from his body during his hanging.
