Saddam Hussein, 1937-2006, was the 5th president of Iraq from 1979 to 2003. He also served as prime minister of Iraq from 1979 to 1991 and later from 1994 to 2003. Saddam was indicted by an Iraqi "Special Tribunal" for crimes committed against residents of Dujail in 1982. Why did it take 24 years to bring this charge?
A few weeks later, he was charged by the Iraqi Special Tribunal with crimes committed against residents of Dujail in 1982, following a failed assassination attempt against him. Specific charges included the murder of 148 people, torture of women and children and the illegal arrest of 399 others.
