	Strange behaviour of Saddam’s brother -DAWN - International; April 20, 2003
		PARIS, April 19: When he lived in Geneva between 1987 and 1999, Barzan al-Tikriti, the half-brother of Saddam Hussein who was arrested on Thursday by US special forces in Baghdad, lived in a villa overlooking Lake Leman which adjoined the residence of the French consul to Geneva.
		They also note that Barzan had arranged to leave behind his family in Geneva, where they still reside today, and, with probable US assistance, could very well be planning to rejoin them after a pro-forma interrogation by US authorities who officially had placed him on their list of the 55 “most-wanted” confederates of Saddam Hussein.
		Which was the precise moment, they say, that Barzan al-Tikriti decided, through his wide-ranging diplomatic contacts, to seek out local US authorities and began arranging for his defection to the United States, perhaps in a first stage, say the French, to a third country.
