...accused of torture, cannibalism, ethnic cleansing and the murder of some 300,000 of his countrymen, Idi Amin Dada is doing pretty nicely at the pleasure of the Saudi royal family. Although his hosts have imposed a media gag on the 72-year-old former military officer and self-proclaimed national heavyweight boxing champion, who ruled Uganda from 1971 to 1979, they've shown no inclination to extradite him.
