Tariq Aziz Captured in Iraq

Thursday, April 24, 2003

WASHINGTON — Tariq Aziz, Saddam Hussein's former deputy prime minister, is in United States custody, U.S. officials confirmed to Fox News Thursday.

The English-speaking Aziz, an outspoken defender of Saddam's regime during the months leading up to the Iraq war, was the eight of spades in the deck of 55 playing cards distributed to U.S. servicemen.

There were reports that Aziz, one of the few Christians in Saddam's predominantly Sunni Muslim regime, had turned himself in to American authorities.
