IRAQ: US HANDS OVER TARIQ AZIZ, OTHER DETAINEES

the U.S. this week handed over nearly 30 former members of Saddam Hussein's inner circle, including the longtime international face of the regime, Tariq Aziz, 74, officials said. 
It raises concerns about the fate of Aziz and the other detainees at the hands of a government whose venom for the previous regime has not lessened in the seven years since Saddam was overthrown.
Deputy Justice Minister Busho Ibrahim said "we have received 55 former regime officials, the main one is Tariq Aziz, and the others are the oil and culture ministers," adding that they have also received Saddam's former secretary, as well as former education and trade ministers.
