Human Remains Found In Shallow Graves

AL-SAMAWA DESERT, IRAQ - APRIL 25: An aerial shot shows a forensic specialist walking near a mass grave discovered in al-Samawa desert on April 25, 2005 in Muthanna province, 270km south of Baghdad, Iraq. Skulls and bones, clothing and other belongings found in shallow graves here offer up valuable clues to investigators gathering evidence against Saddam Hussein and others from the former regime. Dates on medicine found in the graves indicate the people were killed around the time of the 1987-1988 "Anfal campaign" that saw Kurdish villages razed and hundreds of people relocated south, said Sonny Trimble, archaeologist in charge of the excavation.
