DescriptionBritish Prime Minister Tony Blair has confirmed today that deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein had been captured alive in Iraq.

"I very much welcome the capture last night of Saddam Hussein," the prime minister, US President George W Bush's closest ally in the Iraqi war, said in a statement released by his office.

"This is very good news for the people of Iraq. It removes the shadow that has been hanging over them for too long of the nightmare of a return to the Saddam regime.

"This fear is now removed," the statement continued.
