epa00893203 A file picture released by the Iraqi News Agency (INA) 29 March 1998 of former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein brandishing a Russian-made AK 47 assault rifle. Saddam Hussein, who was captured 13 December 2003 by US forces and later put on trial, will be executed within hours, according to a report by Iraqi television Friday, 29 December 2006 but it remained unclear if the US military had turned him over to Iraqi authorities so the death sentence can be carried out. Saddam and six of his former top government aides were found guilty on November 5 of ordering the killing of 148 Shiites in Dujail in retaliation for an attempt on Saddamæs life. EPA/INA
