Ammar al-Bakri

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ammar al-Bakri is an Iraqi judge who was the administrator of the Iraqi Special Tribunal to rule over the trial of Saddam Hussein.[1] Al-Bakri was approved by the Iraqi National Council on October 4, 2004.[2]

Critics claimed that al-Bakri is too close to the former interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi.[3]
