Abdel Alani Team Quotations

This move is to put the defense team on a proper legal foundation and when the family appoints lawyers it then knows who is whom.

The defense team has not yet been finalized. It will be made public when the accused (Saddam) gives his approval to the new team.

This capable team will be entrusted with preparing the defense case when the trial begins and disputing its legality and procedures that deny the President justice.

We have formed a legal defense team that includes prominent American, European, Asian and Arab lawyers who were chosen on the basis of competence and merit to put up a strong defense.
