London: Toppled Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein is still in Iraq, a key Iraqi Opposition
leader, Ahmad Chalabi, has claimed.
"Yes, he is in Iraq. Yes, he his moving around," Chalabi, who heads the Iraqi
National Congress, claimed in an interview to BBC radio on April 21.
"We have received information about his movements and the movements of his sons," he
claimed, but added that the information reached Chalabi's sources too late for them
to locate Saddam before he had moved on again.
"We cannot locate Saddam so that we would have a coincidence of time and position
simultaneously ... But we are aware of his movements and we are aware of the areas
that he has been to and we learn of this within 12 to 24 hours," Chalabi said.
Saddam tops the list of 55 Iraqi officials most wanted by the United States, seven
of whom have been captured.
