Claim: Saddam hanging was PM's wedding present to daughter

UN Insider Says Saddam Killed on Maliki Child Wedding Day

By NIR ROSEN Posted 7 hr. 4 min. ago

A United Nations source has confirmed what at first seemed like an impossible rumor, that Saddam's execution may have been a wedding present from Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al Maliki to his daughter. Other sources maintain it was his son who was married on the day of Saddam's execution. It is also possible that this wedding would have been innocuous or coincidental as Shias cannot get married for the next two months because of their holiness, hence many marry on Eid.
