Tareq Aziz Sentenced to Death
Iraq’s high tribunal on Tuesday passed a death sentence on Tareq Aziz, once the international face of dictator Saddam Hussein’s regime, for the persecution of Islamic parties. The death sentence was the first to be handed down to Aziz, who rose to prominence at the time of Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait and the 1991 Gulf War when he was foreign minister.
