Iraq Government Says Captures Most-Wanted Saddam Aide

Sun Sep 5, 2004 11:01 AM ET

By Waleed Ibrahim and Tom Perry

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraqi and U.S. forces arrested a man believed to be the most-wanted Saddam Hussein aide still on the run in a bloody raid in which 70 of his supporters were killed and 80 captured, the Iraqi government said on Sunday.

But the U.S. military cast doubt on the report, saying Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri -- who was sixth on the U.S. list of the 55 most-wanted members of Saddam's regime and had a $10 million price on his head -- was not in its custody.

"Multi-National Force Iraq confirms that we do not have Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri in custody," a military statement said.
