11 January 2007 :

Iraqi President Jalal Talabani said the government should delay the execution of two of Saddam Hussein’s co-defendants.
Saddam's half brother and former intelligence chief, Barzan Ibrahim, and Awad Hamed al-Bandar, former head of Iraq’s Revolutionary Court, were sentenced to death with Saddam. They were found guilty, along with the former Iraqi leader, of involvement in killing 148 Shiite Muslims after a 1982 assassination attempt on the former leader in the northern town of Dujail. "In my opinion we should wait on the executions," Talabani said at a news conference with US Ambassador to Iraq Zalmay Khalilzad. "We should examine the situation," he said without elaborating.
Talabani said he did not know when Ibrahim and al-Bandar would be hanged.
