"The men of the [Barzani] tribe were loaded onto the coaches and driven away. When the coaches had left...The soldiers...began to beat [the women and children] and force them to return to their houses. As soldiers advanced towards us, I ran away with the other children and went home. By this time, BARZAN AL-TIKRITI had left."

"Around 300-350 were taken to the [X] military camp. They were all shot, some of them personally by BARZAN AL-TIKRITI. A training camp was built over the mass grave in which the men were buried."

"BARZAN AL-TIKRITI personally tortured them, pulling out their nails, administering electric shocks, stretching their limbs apart, throwing boiling water over them, and using electric cables to beat them. BARZAN AL-TIKRITI was also present when the British journalist FARZAD BARZOFT was executed."

"I was pulled to my feet and stood facing the door. Suddenly BARZAN AL-TIKRITI stabbed me in the back with what could have been a screwdriver. When I was stabbed for the second time I lost consciousness."
