Papers on judge's desk STORYLINE Saddam Hussein's 11 top lieutenants appeared in court following the former dictator, no longer prisoners of war but still locked up with U.S. forces as their jailers. The 11 included former Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz, the regime's best-known spokesman in the West, and Ali Hasan al-Majid, known as "Chemical Ali." Aziz told the court later that he wanted a two-man defence team made up of a non-Iraqi Arab and a "foreign" one. He denied personal involvement in any of the regime's crimes. U.S. and Iraqi officials hope the trials will lay bare the atrocities of Saddam's regime and help the country recover from years of tyranny, the U.S.-led invasion and the insurgency that blossomed in its aftermath. Trying Saddam and his regime figures presents a major challenge to the Iraqis and Americans. The new Iraqi government is due to step down after elections in January, and a second national ballot will be held later next year. That means national policy on prosecuting Saddam and his backers could change depending on the makeup of the next government.
