from wikipedia:

Raghad Saddam Hussein (born 1967?) is the oldest daughter of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.

She was married to Hussein Kamel, a high-profile Iraqi defector who shared weapons secrets with UNSCOM, the CIA and MI6. Kamel was killed on Saddam's orders [citation needed]after being persuaded to return to Iraq, believing himself to have been pardoned [citation needed]. Raghad's sister, Rana Hussein was married to Hussein Kamel's brother Saddam Kamel who suffered the same fate.

Hussein Kamel and Raghad have five children.

On July 2, 2006, the government of Iraq national security advisor Muwaffaq al-Rubaie declared that Raghad and her mother Sajidah Khairallah Tilfah Hussein were wanted because they supported the insurgency in Iraq.[1][2] The Jordanian Prime Minister Marouf al-Bakhit made a statement that "Raghad was under the royal family's protection" and "The presence of Mrs Raghad Saddam Hussein and her children in Jordan is motivated by humanitarian considerations, She is the guest of the Hashemite royal family (of King Abdullah II) and under its protection as a seeker of asylum" in accordance with Arab tradition.[3]

On December 30, 2006 her father was executed in Iraq. Prior to the execution Raghad asked for her father's body to be temporarily buried in Yemen, until Iraq is "liberated"[1].
