U.S. Troops Said to Capture Hussein Bodyguard
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TIKRIT, Iraq (AP) -- American soldiers overpowered and arrested a bodyguard who rarely left Saddam Hussein's side Tuesday and said they obtained documents and information that could help them close in on the former dictator.
As ``one of Saddam's lifelong bodyguards,'' Adnan Abdullah Abid al-Musslit was believed to have detailed knowledge of the former president's hiding places, said Lt. Col. Steve Russell, who led the raid. He said documents taken from the home and information obtained from the men would be useful in the hunt for Saddam.
``Every guy we get tightens the noose,'' said Russell, commander of the 4th Infantry Division's 22nd Infantry Regiment. ``Every photo and every document connects the dots.''
The stocky bodyguard struggled to break free as soldiers arrested him, and they had to wrestle him to the ground and drag him down the stairs, Russell said.
``Were we surprised? He's a bodyguard. That's why we went in with our steely knives and oily guns,'' Russell said. ``If everything else had failed and we just got that one guy, we would be happy.''
