| Iraqi government releases Saddam loyalist |
| The Iraqi government has released from prison a top Saddam Hussein loyalist after he was found innocent of helping the former regime punish opponents by draining the country's fabled marshlands, a judge said Wednesday.
Khamis Sirhan al-Muhammad was No. 54 out of 55 on a former U.S. military list of most-wanted Saddam officials.
Iraqi High Tribunal spokesman Judge Mohammed Abdul-Sahib Yaseen said al-Muhammad was recently released from a prison just outside Baghdad after being cleared of the charges in the marshlands draining case. The trial ended this week.
