IRAN: Saddam’s daughter, 59 others on most wanted list for having links with ISIL


A list of sixty people including Saddam’s daughter, Raghad, who lives in Jordan have been placed on the most wanted list by Iranian authorities for belonging to the Islamic State in Iraq and Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS), al-Qaeda or the Baath Party.

Iranian authorities gave details of the roles they allegedly play in their organisations, the alleged crimes of which they are suspected, and, in most cases, photographs.

It also said the list includes 28 suspected ISIL fighters, 12 from Al-Qaeda and 20 from the Baath party.


“These are the terrorists most wanted by the judicial authorities and the security services,” an Iranian senior security official said.

“This is the first time we publish these names which, until now, were secret,” he added.

Reports say the list includes senior members of ISIL, among them Fawaz Mohammad Mutlaq, a former officer in Saddam’s Fedayeen paramilitary organisation but the name of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIL, is absent from the list.
