Saddam trial adjourned till May 15

The trial of Saddam Hussein on charges of crimes against humanity was adjourned on Monday until May 15.

The trial was adjourned after the prosecution presented a handwriting report that found the signatures of Saddam and seven other defendants matched documents linking them to the massacre of 148 Shiites in the Dujail village in the 1980s.
