Two daughters of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein are in Jordanian capital Aman with their nine children, it has been announced. The women -- Raghad Saddam Hussein and Rana Saddam Hussein -- were married to two senior Iraqi officials who defected to Jordan in 1995. The two men returned to Baghdad with their wives the following year believing they had been pardoned by their father-in-law, only to be killed as traitors. Raghad and Rana were reported to be kept under heavy guard.
