Interrogators pursue Saddam for top cohort leads
U S officials outlined interrogation aims to learn Saddam Hussein's knowledge of planned attacks and the hiding places of Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri and other senior regime figures. They seek detail on the resistance and potential links to chemical, biological, or nuclear programs, while noting mixed reports on his cooperation. A captured transcript and documents prompted new intelligence, though some officials say Saddam has been unhelpful. A cache of $750,000 in U S currency was found near him.
