DescriptionAn Iraqi-born Canadian has been charged by the US authorities with conspiring to spy for the Iraqi government of Saddam Hussein from 2000 until 2003.

Mouyad Mahmoud Darwish, 47, who worked in the US at the time, is accused of giving information to Iraqi officials.

He was detained on 24 December as he tried to enter the US from Canada.

Mr Darwish and another man charged last week are among at least 16 people accused by the US since 2003 of acting as illegal agents of Saddam Hussein.
