Saddam trial lawyer assassinated in Baghdad attack
Three masked gunmen in a speeding Opel killed Adel al Zubeidi, a lawyer for Taha Yassin Ramadan, and wounded Thamir al Khuzaie, lawyers for Saddam co defendants. The daylight shooting near western Baghdad followed the kidnapping and killing of another defense lawyer, prompting calls to move the trial abroad. A government spokesman blamed Saddam loyalists, while his lawyer accused the Shiite government. Human rights groups warned the trial may be unsafe in Iraq, urging relocation to a secure Arab country. Laith Kubba said the Nov. 28 session would proceed in Baghdad.
