Saddam Hussein Attacked In Court

Defence lawyers for Saddam Hussein say that an unidentified man attacked the former dictator, during his appearance at a court hearing in Baghdad Thursday.

The legal team said in a statement on Saturday that the man attacked Saddam, as he stood to leave the courtroom, and the two exchanged blows.

It is not clear as to whether Saddam was hurt.

The statement said that the head of the tribunal did nothing to stop the assault.
