Saddam to go on 'hunger strike'

[Sal UK]

Saddam Hussein and the seven co-defendants in his trial are to start a hunger strike in protest over his trial.

The former Iraqi dictator walked out of court on January 29 and has not returned since after a tough new judge took charge.

Saddam and his co-accused are charged with the killing of 148 men from the Shi'ite town of Dujail after a bid to assassinate Saddam there in 1982.

Prosecutors have since warned that he may be forced to attend the next hearing, which starts on Monday.

Khamis al-Aubeidi, a leading member of Saddam's defence team, said: "Saddam and his followers will start a hunger strike from tomorrow, protesting the illegitimate procedures and bad treatment by the court."

He said sources inside the prison had leaked the information on the strike.
