Expert Testimony

Saddam Hussein returned to court today, and Chief Judge Raouf Abdel Rahman read out an expert's report which stated that all documents had his signature and handwriting.

The report did not give details on the documents, but one was dated June 16 1984. The same date of a memo approving the death sentences of the Shiites, presented by prosecutors earlier in the trial.

Abdel Rahman went on to tell the prosecution that one document could not be inspected, because it was a photocopy and an original was required.

The trial continues.
