INC: Former Iraqi information minister negotiates surrender deal

27-04-2003, 20:56

An official at Iraq's leading opposition group, the Iraqi National Congress (INC) has disclosed to Al Bawaba that in the past two days there has been contacts with Mohammad Said al-Sahaf, Saddam Hussein's Information Minister, regarding his surrender. According to Nabil al Musawi, the deal will be completed soon.

Musawi said that although al-Sahaf's name is not included on the list of most wanted Iraqis by US forces, "he is wanted by the Iraqis".

Last week, the Portuguese daily Diario de Noticias reported that the minister whose briefings made him a worldwide celebrity during the recent war, tried to hand himself in via a contact with Portuguese journalists. (Albawaba.com)

He was quoted as saying, "Rumors of my recent suicide are greatly exaggerated."

Evidently, he tried to blow his brains out, and missed!

This is a perfect lead-in for the new SNL and the return of Baba Wawa.

The Portuguese report was that he was trying to surrender to U.S. forces, wasn't it? Does this mean we wouldn't take him?

"According to Nabil al Musawi, the deal will be completed soon. "

"Net? Five points net?
You tell CNN it's gross, and now is ten points!"
