I. INTRODUCTION On November 5, 2006, Trial Chamber 1 of the Iraqi High Tribunal (IHT) issued its verdict in the Ad-Dujayl trial. (1) That verdict convicted Saddam Hussein, (2) Barzan al-Tikriti, (3) and Awad al Bandar (4) of crimes against humanity inflicted upon the civilian population of Ad-Dujayl following a failed assassination attempt against Saddam Hussein that occurred there in 1982. Each of these three defendants was sentenced to death. The IHT also sentenced Taha Yaseen Ramadan (5) to life, three other defendants (6) to a term of fifteen years imprisonment, and acquitted one defendant (7) of all charges.
