Iraq’s vice-president, Tareq al-Hashemi was yesterday sentenced to
death by hanging on charges he masterminded death squads against rivals
in a terror trial that has fuelled sectarian tensions in the country.
Underscoring the instability, insurgents unleashed an onslaught of
bombings and shootings across Iraq, killing at least 100 people in one
of the deadliest days this year.
