"Death sought for 'Chemical Ali':"
"Chemical Ali" is the cousin of late Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein
Iraqi prosecutors have asked for death sentences against five defendants in the so-called Anfal trial for the 1980s crackdown on Iraq's Kurdish population.
They include the alleged mastermind of the campaign - Saddam Hussein's cousin Ali Hassan al-Majid, known as "Chemical Ali" for his use of poison gas attacks.
