Former Iraqi general dies under US interrogation
Baghdad, November 27 :A general of Saddam Hussein's dissolved armed forces has died under interrogation by US forces, in a death that a US military statement on Thursday said, "appeared" to be from natural causes.
Major General Abed Hamed Mowhoush, a former air defence commander, died on Wednesday morning, said the statement issued from the western town of Al-Qaim in the troubled Syrian border region.
"Mowhoush said he didn't feel well and subsequently lost consciousness. The soldier questioning him found no pulse, then conducted cardiac and pulmonary resuscitation and called for medical authorities," the statement said.
"A surgeon responded within five minutes to continue advanced cardiac life support techniques, but they were ineffective. According to the on-site surgeon, it appeared Mowhoush died of natural causes." (snip/...)
