At least three senior UN officials may have looted millions of dollars from the aid program that oversaw Saddam Hussein's oil sales in Iraq, ABC news reported, citing US and European intelligence sources.
Documents from Saddam's oil ministry linked the program's director, Benon Sevan, to a payoff scheme that allowed some 270 foreign officials to deal in Iraqi oil at dramatically reduced prices, ABC news said
Why should Iraqis hate the West?
