Saddam On Hunger Strike

Saddam Hussein has started a hunger strike as a protest over the killing of a senior defence lawyer at his trial.

Khamis al-Obeidi's body was found dumped in Baghdad, hours after he was abducted from his home.

Saddam Hussein and his seven co-accused have vowed not to eat until their defence team received "international protection".
