Saddam back in court to hear witnesses
Saddam Hussein returned to court on Wednesday to hear testimony from defence witnesses for some of his lesser-known co-defendants, who like the ousted Iraqi president have denied crimes against humanity.
Saddam and three other senior Baath party figures being tried with him had not been present since they lodged not guilty pleas to formal charges read out on Monday. Saddam refused to plead but the judge ruled he had denied the charge.
