US tabloid runs frontpage photo of half-naked Saddam
NEW YORK (AFP)
US tabloid newspaper, the New York Post, ran a picture of a half-naked Saddam Hussein in his underwear on its front page, under the banner headline "Butcher of Sagdad."
The intimate photo of Saddam, along with three other pictures of the ousted Iraqi leader in his prison, were billed as an "exclusive" borrowed from sister British tabloid The Sun.
Both newspapers are owned by Australian-born media tycoon Rupert Murdoch.
"Saddam Hussein is living out every dictator's worst nightmare -- stripped of power and stripped to his underwear," the Post said in an accompanying story headlined "Saddam's Life is a Hard Cell."
The other pictures showed Saddam washing his own clothes by hand, walking in a prison yard and sleeping in his cell.
Saddam was captured by US troops in December 2003. The article did not reveal the location of the prison where he is being held.
The Sun said US military sources had handed over the photos in the hope of dealing a body blow to the resistance in Iraq.
The US military said it has ordered an investigation into the source of the photos, saying that they could be a breach of Defense Department regulations and Saddam's rights under the Geneva Coventions.
