Iraqi jailed over British aid worker killing

EXCERPT:

An Iraqi man has been sentenced to life in prison in connection with the murder of Margaret Hassan, the British aid worker abducted and killed in Iraq in 2004.

Mrs Hassan's remains have never been found

Mustafa Salman was charged with aiding and abetting the kidnappers. Two other defendants in the case were freed.

The judge said Salman had received a plastic bag from an associate who asked him to hold on to it. Four months later Iraqi security forces raided Salman's home and found Mrs Hassan's purse and documents in the bag.
