BAGHDAD, July 1--Former president Saddam Hussein was brought before an
Iraqi judge on Thursday and formally accused of ordering mass killings
and other atrocities while he ruled this nation, but he defiantly
refused to recognize the court and insisted he was still the leader of
Iraq.
Hussein's 26-minute court appearance, similar to an arraignment in the
United States, was the first step in a lengthy process aimed at
putting him on trial for crimes against humanity, genocide and other
offenses. He was followed by 11 of his top deputies, who also were
accused of roles in many of the same atrocities.
