By the time the Seals overcame his violent resistance and dropped him off at Abu Ghraib as a "ghost detainee"--an unregistered prisoner--al-Jamadi had suffered damage to his left eye and facial cuts.

His injuries, which the autopsy concluded could not have caused his death, did not prevent him from walking into the prison handcuffed and shackled, answering questions in English and Arabic...
...autobiography, which was published in Japan in October (and coauthored by this correspondent), Jenkins gives a detailed account of Panjoy's tale.

But al-Zubeidi's appearance in the October 19 trial could have lead to his being singled out for assassination. According to his own account, when he introduced himself to Saddam, al-Zubeidi said that despite the fact that he was a Shiite from Babylon, he was still defending him. That's when Saddam replied with his signature phrase, "Afia," or "Well done," leading some onlookers in the courtroom to think al-Zubeidi had been...
