Sabawi Ibrahim al-Tikriti

Sabawi Ibrahim al-Tikriti

Sabawi Ibrahim al-Tikriti, half brother of Saddam Hussein, was the leader of the Iraqi secret service, the "Mukhabarat", at the time of the 1991 Gulf War. He was previously the head of the Directorate of General Security from 1991 to 1996, and later served as a presidential advisor to Hussein.

As of February 27, 2005, the date news of his arrest was made public, he held the six of Diamonds position in the most-wanted Iraqi playing cards, and was number 36 on the top 55 most wanted Iraqis list.

He was suspected of being behind explosions and killings that took place after the collapse of the former regime, and a one million dollar reward was offered for information that led to either his capture or death.

Syria turned him over to Iraqi forces after his capture. The Iraqi troops in turn turned him over to U.S forces. Syria has been repeatedly charged with protecting former Iraqi officials, a charge which the Syrian government has always denied.

His son, Ayman Sabawi Ibrahim, was also arrested by the US and was serving a life sentence until his escape from prison on December 9, 2006.
