Iraqi finance minister arrested by Iraqi police
Iraqi officers arrested Saddam Hussein’s former finance minister Hikmat Al Azzawi and turned him over to U.S. forces. Al Azzawi appears on the U.S. list of 55 most wanted Iraqis and is sought for information on alleged stashed funds. The arrest marks a policing shift as U.S. troops transfer authority to the 4th Infantry Division. Analysts say Saddam may have hidden up to $20 billion offshore.
