Saddam Hussein, former President of Iraq, has been hung, in accordance with the sentence of death pronounced earlier this week.

From Wikipedia:

"As president, Saddam ran an authoritarian government and maintained power and stability in the country. During his rule the Iran-Iraq War (1980–1988) and the Gulf War (1991) happened. He repressed movements deemed threatening to the his regime, particularly those of ethnic or religious groups that sought independence or autonomy along tribal lines. He was and remains a popular hero among many Sunni Iraqis and Arabs for standing up to Israel and the United States.

After the US invasion of Iraq, Saddam was eventually captured by U.S. forces on December 13, 2003. On November 5, 2006, he was convicted of crimes against humanity by the Iraq Special Tribunal and was sentenced to death by hanging.[3] On December 26, Saddam's appeal was rejected and the death sentence upheld. No further appeals are possible and Saddam must be executed within 30 days of that date."
