.Saddam Hussain gave £840,000 to the family of the British engineer who was murdered with his wife in the Alps, it was claimed last night.
The former Iraqi dictator is said to have deposited the sum in a Swiss bank account in the name of Saad Al-Hilli’s father.
The claim, which apparently originated with German intelligence, adds a sensational twist to the baffling case.

(Must be the exact same headline as used in the news story you're submitting.)

Yah Im confused as well. Like the article, you are making a presumption that Saddam Hussein is still alive.

Theyre not claiming that it happened 10 years ago. Theyre saying that it just happened...
