He is reported to have been al-Qaeda’s number two man under Abu Musab Zarqawi and then number two man under Abu Ayyub al-Masri. He was captured by joint American and Iraqi forces near Baquba. Al-saedi, a/k/a Hamed Juma Faris al-Saedi, also known as Abu Humam or Abu Rana. Al-Saedi was hiding in civilian homes and tried to use children and women as human shields. He ordered bombings and mortar attacks, killed innocent civilians, was in charge of a group that kidnapped individuals, and is accused of ordering a February bomb attack that demolished a revered Shiite shrine in Samarra. According to reports, al-Saedi has been talking and giving up valuable information in the two days since his capture. Maybe he is just thankful not to end up like Zarqawi. As a result of information gained from al-Saedi, joint forces have killed 11 militants of the second tier and nine of the lower tier of al-Qadea in Iraq. Mr Rubaie [National Security Adviser Mowaffak al-Rubaie] says Saedi had given orders to an Iraqi militant, Haitham al-Badri, to carry out the attack. Badri, who was linked to the former regime before joining Ansar al-Sunna and ultimately Al Qaeda, still remains at large. Badri is also accused of killing a female Iraqi journalist and two members of a crew working for Dubai’s Al-Arabiya television, who had gone to Samarra to cover the bombing of the shrine. In June, Mr Rubaie announced the capture of a Tunisian Al-Qaeda militant allegedly responsible for the bombing. Abu Qudama al-Tunisi is accused of taking an active part in blowing up the mosque’s golden dome. source Information gained from the house where Zarqawi was bombed led to the capture of al-Saedi and other captures and raids conducted by the joint forces in Iraq. These guys are not so brave when they think their time is up, hiding behind women and children. Pathetic!
