Saddam's Trial Still On

Saddam Hussein's trial will be restarted on schedule, on the 28th of November, despite the murder of two of his defence team.

Raid Juhi, one of the judges on the special tribunal trying Saddam, says that the court is ready to appoint a new team if lawyers fail to appear.

This may well be necessary, as Saddam's team have already said that they will withdraw due to inadequate protection.

Juhi is quoted as saying:

"We have many legal experts and lawyers, and (the court) will choose from among them".
