Saddam still in Iraq, says Chalabi

Toppled Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein is still in Iraq, a key Iraqi opposition leader, Ahmad Chalabi, told BBC radio yesterday.
"Yes, he is in Iraq. Yes, he is moving around," Chalabi, who heads the Iraqi National Congress, said in an interview.
"We have received information about his movements and the movements of his sons," he said, but added that the information reached Chalabi's sources too late for them to locate Saddam before he had moved on again.
"We cannot locate Saddam so that we would have a coincidence of time and position simultaneously ... But we are aware of his movements and we are aware of the areas that he has been to and we learn of this within 12 to 24 hours," Chalabi said.
Saddam tops the list of 55 Iraqi officials most wanted by the United States, seven of whom have been captured.
Reuters adds: The United States shows no sign of knowing where the toppled Iraqi president is, or even whether he is still alive.
Most speculation has focused on Syria as a hiding place, but Middle East analysts say it is unlikely Damascus would harbour him because of the risk that Washington would make it the next target of its global war on terror.
They say Saddam, who was meticulous about his security, probably made his escape plans long ago and could be hiding anywhere from in a cave in Iraq to a luxury villa in Libya.
"I would start with the question of is he still alive? If he is alive, then I don't think that he is still in Iraq," said Jawad al-Anani, a former foreign minister of Jordan who is now a political consultant based in the United Arab Emirates.
"I don't think he's in Syria either. Even if he did go, I don't think he'd stay very long as the Syrians, with all the pressure they're under, won't keep him."
Anani said Saddam would probably choose to hide in a large populated place where he could remain incognito and that he was unlikely to go to any country that had anything to gain from handing him over or having him killed.
He said need not be in the Arab world, and cited Sudan and Afghanistan as possible destinations. Both countries have had links with bin Laden's al-Qaeda network.
"He's a careful man. He won't go somewhere where he can be recognised or easily captured," Anani said. "He might have a chance in a large Islamic country, maybe Afghanistan."
