A BBC television program airing Sunday night, Panorama, outs the man who betrayed Saddam. The program says it is his relative and former bodyguard, Mohammed Ibrahim Omar al-Musslit , who gave up Saddam after being arrested and interrogated.

Mr Musslit was a loyal lieutenant of Saddam Hussein. He was one of the people who accompanied the Iraqi leader as he fled Baghdad in a white Oldsmobile, as US troops entered the city on 9 April 2003. But Panorama will reveal that he was quickly broken by interrogators after being captured in Baghdad, and led American troops to his boss just hours after being arrested in December.

The program also reports that the U.S. will not give al-Musslit any of the reward money, because he didn't volunteer the information:

A senior US commander, Major General Ray Odierno, denied the source had been tortured but told the programme that he was "a shady character", adding that he believed "the US treasury gets to keep the money."
