Earlier, Arabic satellite channel Arabiya had said Barzan Ibrahim and Awad al-Bander were also executed by hanging after Saddam.

Another Iraqi official said the two will be executed later on Saturday. Rubaie, who said he witnessed the execution, told Iraqiya Saddam appeared to be a "broken man" before he mounted the scaffold, reported Reuters.
