IRAQ-TRIAL-ANFAL-GENOCIDE-VERDICT-DURI
Sabir al-Duri, a former Iraqi military intelligence chief, sits in the dock during the verdict trial session in Baghdad, 24 June 2007. An Iraqi court today condemned "Chemical Ali," the most notorious of Saddam Hussein's former henchmen, to death by hanging for genocide over the systematic slaughter of ethnic Kurds in 1988. Two other defendants were also ordered to face the gallows over the brutal campaign of bombings, mass deportation and gas attacks known as Anfal in which 3,000 villages were wiped out and an estimated 182,000 Kurds killed. Sabir al-Duri received a life term on the same charges and for providing Saddam with studies on how to use chemical arms to maximum effect. AFP PHOTO/POOL/JOSEPH EID
