Various of documents and evidences STORYLINE Prosecutors presented more evidence as Saddam Hussein's Kurdish genocide trial resumed in Baghdad on Wednesday. Saddam Hussein and six other co-defendants have pleaded innocent to charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity for their alleged roles in a military offensive against the Kurds, codenamed 'Operation Anfal'. The prosecution estimates that 180,000 Kurds were killed in 1987-88 when Saddam's army waged a scorched-earth campaign against Kurdish separatist guerrillas, allegedly destroying hundreds of villages, killing or forcing their residents to flee. Saddam and one other defendant have pleaded innocent to the additional charge of genocide. If convicted, all the accused could be condemned to death. Saddam has already been condemned to death in a separate trial where he was convicted of ordering the execution of 148 Iraqis, including children, after an attempt to assassinate him in the town of Dujail in 1982. Early this month, his lawyers appealed against that verdict and sentence.
