Saddam orders agents to kill Iraqi opposition leaders in Britain November 4 2002 Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has instructed agents to kill Iraqi opposition leaders based in Britain to prevent them from forming an alternative government if he is overthrown, a British paper reported yesterday. British and American intelligence officials have received information in the past week that Saddam has issued a presidential decree authorising the murder of leading members of the Iraqi opposition "by any means necessary," The Sunday Telegraph said. He is also said to have approached Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi - who is known to have a network of "sleeper" agents in Britain and Europe - to help him to target Iraqi dissidents, the paper said. Details of the decree, which were sent from Saddam's base in Baghdad to Iraqi security officials in Europe and the Middle East last week, were intercepted by British officials at a listening complex in Cheltenham, central England, according to the report. Saddam's instructions have also been picked up by CIA spy satellites and by agents in the Middle East, the paper added. "We've been informed by the British authorities that there's an increased threat from Saddam," the London spokesman for the Iraqi National Congress (INC), opposed to Saddam's rule, told the paper. "We are taking the appropriate steps to improve security," the spokesman added. The INC headquarters in Kensington, central London, is already heavily protected by bomb- proof doors and windows, The Sunday Telegraph said. Last week, Scotland Yard special branch detectives were stepping up protection measures for families of Iraqi opposition leaders, the paper added.
